[ic] Now where has that fabled FAQ gone then?

Well...It looks like I'm the latest newbie going through the act of 
getting Interchange to play nice with SSL under a different domain...

Having read nearly all of the hundred-odd hits returned by searching for 
'secure domain',  I have been thoroughly convinced of my need to read 
the FAQ that evidently once resided on the minivend 
site...soooooo...maybe one of the many helpful souls out there could 
give this navigationally challenged user a url... ;-)

The post most relevant to my situation was headed:
   Subject: Re: [ic] 4.7.x SSL domain problem...
   From: John Beima <jbeima@palb.com>
   Date: Sun Jun  3 17:27:00 2001

and it led me to believe that 4.7.x is 'broken' for my scenario.
Anyway, could someone point me to the answers which must be 
somewhere...(I do have the interchange documentation from redhat).

Yes, I _have_ tried the WideOpen, IpHead,IpQuad, DomainTail...the whole 
[loop search="se=frustrated/sf=swear_words"][loop-body][/loop] 
shebang... or at least to the best of my understanding anyway...please 
enlighten me.

Having seen a few "blah blah blah rtfm" style replies to earlier posts, 
and agree that the replies were warranted,  I *have* read the archives 
and the docmentation,
and believe me, I would dearly love to get my hands on that elusive 
FAQ...a little help here ppl??? [image furious_animation=1 
src='waving_hand.gif'] ;-)

For the record, I am running 4.7.2, with entirely different domains (but 
same ip) for http and ssl.  I observed no behavioural improvement 
between many
configurations involving most permutations of WideOpen and related 
directives. (yes, I did restart the catalog) - Bad behaviour being 
defined as failure to transfer cart contents to the checkout page.  (As 
one would expect, a session turns out to be exactly 
that...non-transferrable)

Well...I hope I've managed to keep my frustration down enough to avoid 
offending the residents of this list...I'll now go outside and slug the
punchbag a few times :-)

Any comments / direction pointers will be greatly appreciated... (aka TIA)

Kind Regards,
