That's true if each of his servers will have the same common name (CN). But if one server resides for example on imap.foobar.com and the other at smtp.foobar.com, he has to use different certificate.

I'm a big fan of jails and use three on my server. I also try to keep my server up to date and I rebuild it frequently but when I rebuild my server, update to the latest version, do I also have to rebuild my jails? Can I have a jail built with 4.10 and use it without problems in 4.11 and so on? __
