Bug#556932: apache2: Out of date comment in ports.conf



Package: apache2.2-common
Version: 2.2.14-1
Severity: minor

ports.conf still contains the pre-SNI message in it's mod-ssl section:
    # SSL name based virtual hosts are not yet supported, therefore no
    # NameVirtualHost statement here

As they are supported, some better wording.. eg. "SSL Name based virtual hosts require a browser with SNI support.  See http://wiki.apache.org/httpd/NameBasedSSLVHostsWithSNI";

It's probably not worth putting a NameVirtualHost in by default at this stage as there are plenty of browsers that don't yet support it (eg. pre-vista IE versions).
