Full Version: SSL / subdomain question

Quick overview.
I have mydomain.com. I want to have my SSL cert for secure.mydomain.com. I have already purchased and installed the cert for secure.mydomain.com successfully. I put the mydomain.com on it's own IP so I can use SSL.

This is where I'm getting confused. How do I get content up for secure.mydomain.com? Do I just put it in the "public_html" folder or put it in it's own "secure" folder under "public_html"?

I've tried making secure.mydomain.com a subdomain but I don't want to do a redirect, I want to use the DNS resolve secure.mydomain.com and have them see that name. Also, where the heck do you put content for subdomains so that it's seperate from the main site?

:confused:

Ok after doing ALOT of research and just basically playing with it, I got it to work. Here is what I found:

First of all when you have a domain such as mydomain.com and you setup secure.mydomain.com on the cPanel, the folder where you would put stuff for secure.mydomain.com would be /public_html/secure.

Ex.
public.mydomain.com
content would be under public_html/public

It's that easy. I just was looking to deep into it and was making more difficult then it really was.
