Erik's questions

To start, this question might overlap with others but I almost feel like this is a Red Hat issue regarding the "how to properly configure it" part.

I have a few websites being served from the same IP address, no problems there. However, I want to give some of those websites a little protection through HTTPS. In RedHat, the ssl.conf file is referenced in the https.conf file and they seem to work well with each other.

Documentation had pointed me to creating a .conf file for every secure website I want and place that file in the /etc/httpd/conf.d/ directory which also contains the ssl.conf file. Assuming all the directives are set up properly, would i need to reference the ssl.conf file in the secureWesite.conf file placed in that directory?

Second, there is an option of giving apache its own key pair but when it comes to each website having its own key pair how would that work? Im not interested in paying $500 per year for the wild card cert so are there any options out there? I hold mention that I only have one IP address at this time.

Thank you for the assistance.

I have 8 hard drives of different sizes that I want in a RAID 5 or 6 configuration, the OS is Ubuntu 12.04 desktop.

Does the native RAID in Ubuntu support RAID configurations with hard drives of different sizes? Can i grow the RAID in the future?

If not, is ZFS a good alternative to this?

I have looked at other alternatives like FlexRAID (support is terrible and documentation is just as reliable), UnRAID, and snapRAID but there seems to be limitations with each of them. But, ZFS seems to be a good long term solution for RAID management and growth.
