the ssl certs are tied to the hostname of the machine (not apache) 
apparently.  Also are you talking about the bbhosts file for the config.
I currently the following hosts that need to be changed to 
login.publicdata.com as they will have the same ssl cert
The current client name is the hostname of the machine.  All four need 
to be login.publicdata.com.  But if I do that, the certs work but xymon 
gets very grumpy and quits reporting data for any of them.
