Hi Bryan,

Thanks for the info. I'll be trying this out this morning. The thought 
of placing the container for the SSL portion of interchange's domain 
before any containers using port 80 hadn't occured to me. Here's what 
the container for interchange looks like.

NameVirtualHost 192.1.1.1.1

<VirtualHost 192.1.1.1.1>
  ServerAdmin webmaster at americanmicroinc.com
  DocumentRoot "/var/www/html/americanmicroinc.com/order"
  ServerName order.americanmicroinc.com
  ScriptAlias /cgi-bin/ /var/www/html/americanmicroinc.com/order/cgi-bin/
  </VirtualHost>

As for what version of apache, we're using Apache 2. ( don't really care 
for this version. I've become too used to 1.3.x )

At the moment this container is buried in amongst all the rest of the 
148 containers on this webserver. Guess it shows that I'm still learning 
the ins and outs of apache. But its still lightyears easier and makes 
mroe sense than IIS.  :)

I really appreciate all the awesome help I've been getting on this list 
this week. You all are awesome and thanks for puttin up with this n00b.
