Interesting. The reason for the limitation makes more sense now. But why
do the first two virtual domains (example.com and www.example.com) work?Usually the signed SSL cert contains both domains (Common Name) eg the
short example.com and the long www.example.com (at least GoDaddy always
adds both even you dont specify that).
So basically you get a simple wilcard certificate…( to look up what
Common Names you have ‘openssl x509 -in filename.crt -noout -text’ )
You may be right.
However, I believe GoDaddy is pleasing exception: they use such
certificate
even on own site. Contrariwise, https://verisign.com and
https://thawte.com
present www.* certificate versions.
