Common Name on SSL certificate

807567Sep 22 2003 — edited Sep 23 2003
I was wondering if anyone can tell me whether the Common Name on the SSL certificate (which I plan to request from Verisign) MUST be the same as the name of the Sun One 6.0 SP6 web server instance.

For example, if my server name in the Servers tab is "svr9999.mycompany.com" but I have a DNS alias giving the machine the name "www.mycompany.com", can I use the "www.mycompany.com" name for the certificate, or does is have to be the actual "svr9999.mycompany.com" name in the Server tab?

If that is possible, is there any "special" stuff I need to do to accomplish it?
