Description Christoph Anton Mitterer 2012-02-15 00:54:44 UTC 
Hi.

https://httpd.apache.org/docs/trunk/mod/mod_ssl.html#sslstrictsnivhostcheck
already describes the effect of having it set in default and non-default name based vhosts.

Can you please describe the effect of setting it in server context (which is I guess(!!) the same as setting it in all default name based vhosts).


Thanks,
Chris.

Hi Christoph,

very late answer, really sorry. I took a look to https://wiki.apache.org/httpd/NameBasedSSLVHostsWithSNI and the answer seems to be yes, but probably the documentation needs to be updated. I'll do some research and then propose a patch.
