What do you mean by 'secure?'  And, by 'domain' do you mean virtual host?

Also, beware Apache2 and SSL.  If you configure an Apache2 server's SSL 
requirements on a per directory basis, your server will be unable to 
process POST requests in those directories requiring stronger 
authentication than the base server.  This is also true for virtual 
hosts.  Ralf Engeschall is a weiner who refuses to fix the problem.
