It used to be the case that various parts of the middleware didn't cope
with aliases, e.g. they do a reverse lookup on the ip address and
complain if it doesn't match the name they know or the name in a host
certificate. Some of that might have been fixed but I wouldn't be
confident that it would work - does anyone know more?
