Comment:

 Replying to [ticket:3813 samj]:
 > For each bucket that uses an FQDN as its name (e.g. media.samj.net)
 rather than a bare token (e.g. digitalcourier) Cyberduck wants to connect
 to fqdn.s3.amazonaws.com (e.g. media.samj.net.s3.amazonaws.com) which
 fails certificate verification even though a *.s3.amazonaws.com wildcard
 certificate is in place.

 RFC 2818 says

 {{{
    Matching is performed using the matching rules specified by
    [RFC2459].  If more than one identity of a given type is present in
    the certificate (e.g., more than one dNSName name, a match in any one
    of the set is considered acceptable.) Names may contain the wildcard
    character * which is considered to match any single domain name
    component or component fragment. E.g., *.a.com matches foo.a.com but
    not bar.foo.a.com. f*.com matches foo.com but not bar.com.
 }}}
