Jennifer,
The default httpd.conf should work, however you have to have the
following two entries in place in order for the new /dev/random device
to work:
SSLRandomSeed startup file:/dev/urandom 512
SSLRandomSeed connect file:/dev/urandom 512
If this doesn't help, email me direct at [EMAIL PROTECTED] and I'll be
glad to send you my httpd.conf.
