Ahh, I'm an idiot. Thank you for pointing that out to me. xip.io uses dots and so my brain just assumed dots on this one was well. I still would be very interested in finding a provider that did this or gave a reasonable number of domains on the cert. Though wildcard on subs is what I really want without having to buy one for each sub so I can do:

.server1.joshstrange.com

.server2.joshstrange.com

etc...



Providers can't do this, because browsers implement an RFC that doesn't allow multi-level wildcards.


Yeah, I've read this previously. It seems odd to me, I feel like I should be able to do this, I own the domain and I want to secure everything underneath it... sigh I guess I'll have to settle for a cert that allows for lots of domains under it and just have to create a different cert for each domain.
