The way it was explained to me is that the name of the site gets decrypted
too late for name-based redirection. Now you can have multiple name-based
virtual hosts and a single SSL virtual host but it's cheating to say that
it's name-based because it actually monitors all connections on port 443
(regardless of name).
So the only way to have multiple virtual SSL hosts is to have each one
listen to a different port or IP.
I second Charles... if I'm wrong, I'd love to be corrected. I never tried
multiple name-based myself.
