UCC SSL certificate across multiple machines and IPs




I have some doubts concerning the UCC certificates.



From what I understand, they can be used to offer SSL to several domains using only 1 certificate file.



However, in all sites that I search, UCC SSL options always refer to "Microsoft® Exchange Server" or as being "ideal" for Microsoft technologies. Also, they are not clear about multiple IPs... and, obviously, I don't have a great deal of know-how on these subjects...



So, I have the following questions, assuming that I buy a UCC certificate for 3 domains:




  1. can I use a single certificate to "secure" www.domainA.com, domainB.pt and domainC.co.uk?


  2. can I use that same certificate on webservers, located on different machines, with completely different IP addresses?

  3. can I use that same certificate with Apache2?



More specifically, I'm currently looking at GoDaddy options:





Thanks!


Answer





  1. Yes.

  2. Yes.

  3. Yes.



That said, some UCC providers would consider these sort of uses violations of the terms of service for the UCC.
