Yes, and, in fact, you must. Each virtual server is separate, and there
won't be any "inheritence" of features between them, so if you want a
virtual server to have a particular feature, you must explicitly enable
it.

Not necessarily. Each virtual server gets its own Tcl interpreters. Any
Tcl you have in ${AOLSERVER_ROOT}/modules/tcl will be sourced by all
virtual servers, per the usual instructions (stuff in the dir is done
alphabetically; subdirs are only loaded if there is a "ns_param <subdir>
Tcl" in the modules section for the virtual). Stuff in
${AOLSERVER_ROOT}/servers/$server/modules/tcl is strictly per-virtual
server.
> 3. Can you do name and ip based virtual hosting
Yes. You can load the nssock module globally, which enables host-based
virtual servers. Additionally, you can load nssock on a per-module basis
and nail a particular virtual server to a particular IP address. I don't
believe you have a choice about which nssock instance gets the name-based
virtual servers; it's always the global one.
Scott, want to comment on nsopenssl?
