Only one clientssl profile can be applied to the virtual server. and even if we could dynamically call different profiles, the Host header is not seen until after the cert/key exchange takes place -- too late to decide which one to use.
For multiple hostnames in the same domain, a wildcard certificate is the best solution to this conundrum.
For disparate domains (like those I used in my example), there really isn't a foolproof way to do that. If sessions will originate via HTTP then redirect to HTTP, there's an interesting post suggesting a workaround here:
