If you're explicitly including the port number in the link then it should work.

Well we are linking to each one with the port number as part of the url, something like https://sharepoint.myorg.com:8100/sitename/thispage.aspx

My misunderstanding on the "farm" terminology. These servers represent different Web Applications on sharepoint. I think that's the proper term for this. And like I said it was all configured before I had a crack at it. I'm supposed to just make it work...

I don't think you can do this - how will the browser know to use the different ports? I think the ports will all have to be the same/default 443. Besides, what's the point of a farm all on one server?

Yes, you can install the same certificate on different sites but they will be required to be installed on different ports. like 4431, 4432 and so on.

How to install SSL for Multiple Sites, Same Domain, Different Ports

So we have these virtual servers already set up in IIS, each one using the same domain but responding on different non-standard ports. It's a farm for Sharepoint actually. It was setup before I came along. Now they want to be able to install SSL for all these sites. Is this possible with the same certificate since they are all the same domain, or do I need a wildcard certificate for this? I've read several posts about using host headers for multiple sites. Is that what I should do instead?

Example: sharepoint.myorg.com:8100 and sharepoint.myorg.com:8200, etc.

Confused. Please advise...
