Thanks for your message, but I had already started SSL (under windows 
nt apache -D SSL).
I think it's a problem with CAs: I have created new server 
certificates, but left the original apache files that refer to 
www.snakeoil.dom as CA.
Modssl documentation says that a new self-signed CA for the server can 
be created using the ca.sh script.. but no such scripts (or 
equivalents) exist in the win32 distribution of Apache+modssl.

What can i do ?

Thank you in advance
Roberto Borghesi
