SSL Server is different to the hosting server

[danieljohnlewis]

Hello,

I am a bit of a new user to Zen Cart. I have been trying to set it up today but the ssl server is a different machine the hosting server, so I have a few questions:

* Do I have to transfer the Zen Cart system from one server to the other each time I make a change of some kind?
* Is there not a way to separate out the bits that need SSL and the bits that don't?
* Would it be a viable option just to use the SSL server?
* Are there any hosts/companies offer SSL pointing to certain folders, instead of separate webspace?

Every opinion and thought is very welcome.

Thank you for any help you can give,

Daniel.

Yes you would have to make ALL changes to both servers

* Is there not a way to separate out the bits that need SSL and the bits that don't?

Not really

* Would it be a viable option just to use the SSL server?

could be done would be slow and resource consuming

* Are there any hosts/companies offer SSL pointing to certain folders, instead of separate webspace?

Yes there are
