    SSL not matching server identification

    JaguarPC just installed an SSL Certificate on one of the sub-domains on my VPS ("secure.domain.com") and I'm receiving an error from my browser (Chrome) that the SSL Certificate does not match the name of the server ("localhost"). There have been a few times, however, that the error does not appear and the SSL connection appears fully secured.

    I see 2 A records for the sub-domain in my DNS, 1 that points to the dedicated IP for the domain and 1 that points to the shared IP for the VPS. Could this be the reason the SSL is *sometimes* not appearing to match the server name? Should there be 2 A records for a sub-domain?

    Here is what I see in my DNS:

    Code:
    secure     A     1.1.1.45     //shared IP
    secure     A     1.1.1.67     //dedicated IP
    www.secure     A     1.1.1.45 
    www.secure     A     1.1.1.67
    I'm new to managing my own DNS so thank you in advance for your help.

    Hi dbluth,

    There should not be 2 'A' records in the DNS of sub-domain and yes it can cause this problem. Please update your ticket and Techs will assist you regarding this. Thank you.
