You can, however, listen on multiple ports. By default, https uses 443,
but you can use :444, :10444, etc. As long as the host portion of the
URL resolves to the canonical name that resolves to the IP where the
port is listening on, the cert should match it. If you use a different
port than :443, you must still implicitly use it in the URL.
