It's a far-*left* policy - "We're ARIN, and we know how best everyone's resources should be allocated." A far-right policy would be "Here are these IPs you've requested; use them as you will, but don't come whining back to us for more because you underestimated your initial request." This would be far preferable. The SSL issue is a real one, and I don't know how to get around it. One would assume that this would qualify as an 'exception'; however, how are they going to verify what you're using them for? Are they going to nmap your networks to see if you're really running SSL on the IPs you've requested?
It's irrelevant. I wouldn't mind using name-based hosting, but I have seen some issues with Apache where it doesn't always serve up the correct site. I haven't found a good way to do it at all with IIS, since you must identify an IIS-hosted site by IP address. (Please, someone let me know if there's a way to do name-based hosting with IIS - I'd like to do it!) -- North Shore Technologies, Cleveland, OH http://NorthShoreTechnologies.net Steve Sobol, BOFH - President, Chief Website Architect and Janitor Linux Instructor, PC/LAN Program, Natl.
