It sounds like Apache is warning you that you have multiple sections with the same IP address and port... as far as getting it to work without warnings, I think you would need to use something like Server Name Indication (SNI), a way of identifying the hostname requested as part of the SSL handshake. Basically it lets you do name-based virtual hosting over SSL, but I'm not sure how well it's supported by browsers. Other than something like SNI, you're basically limited to one SSL-enabled domain name for each IP address you expose to the public internet.

Of course, if you are able to access the websites properly, you'll probably be fine ignoring the warnings. These particular ones aren't very serious - they're mainly an indication of what to look at if you are experiencing problems
