IBM HTTP Server and SSL helpful links .

Here are some very useful IBM HTTP Server (IHS) SSL links: Documentation about setting up SSL virtualhosts, creating keyfiles, certificates, protecting access to directories and URLs to specific ciphers, tracing and recording SSL traffic, how to create a key database file and renewing a certificate using iKeyman, how to check the password expiration information of a KDB file, how to convert personal certificates stored in a PKCS12 or PFX file into a CMS key database file.

Also: configuring IHS with two different virtualhost definitions on SSL (port 443), IP-Based Virtual Hosting, SSL certificates with Subject Alternative Names (SAN), configuring IHS for multiple SSL certificates (multiple domains) using one IP address only and configuring IHS to require an SSL client certificate for certain requests, but not for others.
