U can do that, Dave, but u need to check the kind of certificate
you're getting to make certain it covers domains as well as
subdomains.

Hello,
I've got to secure some services using an ssl certificate. Each is operated on a different subdomain for example:
www.domain.com pop.domain.com smtp.domain.com svn.domain.com
etc. It's now time to renew the certificates, I wasn't the one who purchased the original batch, but the client has a separate certificate purchased at the same time for each service. I'm wondering if it wouldn't be better to do a wildcard certificate such as:
domain.com or: *.domain.com
in the cert's commonname field? I'd prefer to only use one certificate for all services if possible and it also saves a considerable amount of money.
Thanks. Dave.
