What you'll need in the httpd.conf file is:-
<VirtualHost www.yskcorp.com:443>
SSLEngine On
SSLCertificateFile /path/to/apache/conf/ssl.crt/server.crt
SSLCertificateKeyFile /path/to/apache/conf/ssl.key/server.key
</VirtualHost>
Also ensure you have the '<IfDefine SSL>' and '<IfModule mod_ssl.c>' sections in your httpd.conf file and have removed the '_default_' virtual host. Make sure that your server is listnening to port 443 - 'Listen 443' -, it will be in one of the 'IfDefine SSL' sections.
To run the Apache server with SSL use:-
/path/to/apache/bin/httpd -DSSL
The '-DSSL' informs the server that you are defining SSL as an option so all directives within <IfDefine SSL>...</IfDefine> sections will be read.
p.s. You need to use IP based virtual hosts with SSL i.e. the need to
have thier own IP address

So if I need to enable say www.yskcorp.com for SSL I would make another
entry in the httpd.conf file like <VirtualHost www.yskcorp.com:443>? Or can
I add it to an existing VirulaHost entry?Also, what on earch is the command line to start httpd in SSL mode? After I
compiled the source, it told me what to use, but I have since lost the
command string and can not find it ANYWHERE in the documentation, website,
newsgroups.. nowhere...Thanks for your help!
