Yes, mod_ssl does not support DBM user files. As well as plain text files.
It does not support authentification with MySQL and PostgreSQL as well.
You must use other modules for this. RTFM (not FM from mod_ssl but FM from
Apache itself). If I recall correctly AuthDBMUserFIle come from mod_auth_dbm
so you must have this module in bundle...
