SSL Question

Posted on July 4, 2013

Ok here’s the problem. I’m setting up a free domain provider (their sub domains instead, not actual domains), and I host the dns records for each sub domain. Is it possible to host a wildcard SSL certificate on my server for the sub domains if they aren’t hosted on my server since I host their DNS records? And if so, how would I do it?

Thanks in advance, Francis

Not possible because the web server provides the certificate. Not the DNS server.
