Just keep SSL in the background for better performance of the non-SSL. Very few of your visitors ever make it all the way to the end of the purchase process that requires https:, so you get very few hits on that background W*SSL, and people expect it to be slower anyway because of the encryption. This is how we run it here at PCS.No need to rename the box either: just use https:/www.abc.com and http:/www.abc.comWebCatalog's license agreement is for running a single copy on a single CPU.Grant Hulbert, V.P.
