I am doing exactly this.  I contacted RSA to buy a license
to use RSA for my ssl webserver.  They told me that I needed
to buy a commercial server as their pricing is not setup for
small guys like me.  I then asked them if I could use the
"Advanced Crypto License" that came with RedHat Secure
WebServer with my setup (Apache+ssl at the time, now
mod_ssl) and they told me this was fine.  I contacted RedHat
and they told me that they were including the "Advanced
Crypto License" with the server.  I ordered the RedHat
product, and just popped it on the shelf.

By the way, the server is available from www.cheapbytes.com
for only $79
