    Default WHM always pushing /webmail /cpanel etc to hostname?

    I've got a rapidSSL cert on my domain (domain.com) but regardless of the settings in whm's tweak settings (Cpanel11) IE7 etc is receiving a certificate from host.domain.com when I try to access domain.com/Cpanel etc. I am pushing the user to use the SSL/TLS.

    When visiting /cpanel or /whm or /webmail WITHOUT SSL, you can choose to redirect to:
    set to: Origin Domain Name

    When visiting /cpanel or /whm or /webmail with SSL, you can choose to redirect to:
    set to: Origin Domain Name

    What do I need to change to fix this? I don't want to have to buy another cert.. :/

    hi,
    certificate are bound on the URL you purchase for,

    so if you are having a cert installed on hostname the cpanel has this option to re-direct users to hostname for SSL login else the certificate would not work on other URL on your server (domain1.com, domain2.com etc)

    this was never the case before? was this changed just to avoid the nasty error message you get in the browser?

    Yeah, I understand that the certificate is bound to the domain name (domain.com). My problem is that when someone tries to access domain.com/cpanel they are getting sent to SERVERNAME.domain.com and the cert doesn't work.

    I want to stop it from forwarding to the host.domain.com and just use domain.com. Is that possible?
