Wildcard SSL and Wildcard hostnames

May 11, 2015 07:11AM
Hey there, I'm struggling to find the correct answer and unsure if there even is one.

We have a domain say, example.co and we've purchased a wildcard SSL certificate for it. We want to be able to provide what amounts to....with minimal configuration.

https://example.co
https://blah.example.co
https://somerandomsubdomain.example.co

all pointing at the same server so something like

server {
port 443
server_name example.co *.example.co;

ssl on;
ssl_protocols .....;
ssl_ciphers .....;
ssl_prefer_server_ciphers on;
ssl_certificate /data/nginx/ssl/example.co.crt;
ssl_certificate_key /data/nginx/ssl/example.co.key;
}

This doesn't appear to work as I would expect it to. Would we need to set up a different server for each subdomain explicity. or could we get away with one config for example.co and another for *.example.co? I've seen examples of using the same ssl key for different virtual servers with different hostnames but not pointing to the same one.

Anyone else have any joy with a similar config?
