SSL and CPanel

[culthill]

Hello,

We will soon be deploying a portal on our site which allows customers to login securely, to access our services. We will be requiring SSL for a specific folder, but feel your dedicated cert solution is more likely the option to fit our requirements.

On your linux CPanel systems, when the address http://www.ourdomain.com is entered, the URL points to the "public_html" folder on the filesystem. With the dedicated cert, when the address https://www.ourdomain.com or http://secure.ourdomain.com is entered, the URL points to a different folder on the filesystem, possibly "ssl" under the same parent folder. Is this correct ?

Kind regards,



Justin Evans

Hi Justin,

A dedicated cert will just mirror your whole domain so that it is secure. So https://www.yourdomain.com will still point to the public_html folder.

Thanks Jacob. I'm definetly more clued up on SSL now after reading the SSL threads.
