Trying the different sub domain trick doesn't work on the same server

Let me phrase this explicitly :
- You use only one Apache instance
- You configured two virtual hosts inside that instance
- Then :        
   - either each virtual host listens on a different IP
   - or they listen on two different ports,
and you use a firewall to redirect the two separate external IP on those two ports on the same internal IP

I assume that's because the server reuses the
cached SSL session and initiates a renegotiation upon certificate
authentication. Does that make sense so far?

We'll it may be so, but it'd be a little surprising.
It requires two "bug/feature" I think :
- a server that allows reusing the same SSL ID on a different virtual host. I can see how it could happen that the SSL ID pool is actually shared between all virtual servers, but it's still not very clean. - a client that tries to reuse the SSL ID if the request goes to the a different host inside the same subdomain. Now that's harder to think of it as anything else than a quite ugly bug, but we'd have to live with it if it's the case
