	418	If you want HTTPS to work, you must remember this:
	419
	420	. Providing the PEM-encoded files is mandatory for both `Certificate`
	421	and `Certificate key` fields. Providing the `CA List` is optional.
	422
	423	. If you have several virtual servers, the `Security` section must be
	424	configured for every one of them. At the moment you cannot have some
	425	with HTTPS and some without. This makes sense, since by enabling the
	426	feature in any one of them you are opening the HTTPS port in your
	427	host, and receiving HTTPS requests for a virtual server that does
	428	not provide the service would not be handled in a coherente
	429	manner. None of the alternatives is very elegant in design: falling
	430	back to HTTP, issuing an error that is likely to restart the HTTPS
	431	hanshake, etc. This behavior, however, might change in the future
	432	depending on the popularity of any proposed mechanisms.
