- gnosek 10y agoAll of them, AFAIK. I think it's been like that since more or less IE7 days.
- chris_wot 10y agoYes, but why?
- PaulBurke 10y agoIt is limitation of Wildcard SSL Certificate which is decided by Certificate authority. So a wildcard ssl can only secure the first level domain. To secure second level suv-domains, you need to buy ssl for "*.first-level.website.com".
