Does anybody know if it's possible to use certificates with the SSL module,
and how would you do it if it is possible?

Did you grab NET/SSL or SSLeay from CPAN? Do a CPAN search. I had to
install the modules from Crypt-SSLeay-0.11.tar.gz to get https access to
work. Once I installed everything it worked like a charm. Get this
module package, read everything, get the support packages (openssl
etc...), install, test, go.
