[pubcookie-users] Pubcookie virtual host support

[Nathan Dors]

I think we've progressed beyond that, such that each virtual host 
can have its own session key pair and encryption key obtained from 
the keyserver. In my limited experience with this, you need to 
define the usual pubcookie directives as defaults, which you can 
then override in the vhost configs.

All this was introduced in 3.1, and here's the brief yet relevant 
section from the install guide:
