I manage a lot of servers at work and several of my certificates were to expire soon. Plus I was using some self-signed certificates on some servers. Given that I could use certificates on more than 10 servers, I decided to go with a wildcard certificate. That means that I can use this certificate for any host with a "*.mydomain.com" address.
The process couldn't have been easier. After creating a key and a certificate signing request (csr) for "*.mydomain.com", I was able to go through their web interface and was finally emailed a link to download both the certificate and an intermediate CA chain file.
Thanks, Go Daddy.
