I recently noticed that with Apache and mod_ssl that if you go to a default document using https in a subdirectory:

(www.some_url_here.com/subdir)

the browser reports that the domain name doesn't match. However, www.some_url_here.com/subdir/index.htm works fine. It looks like something is messing up breaking the URL up when the path is present but no document name (since www.some_Url_here.com works fine).

Is this expected behaviour or is it a problem with some software in the chain? I worked around it with a redirect, but...

Hmm... either this was a dumb question, or no one else knows either, I guess...
