And I likewise affirm:  it works out of the box for me.

Though not initially.  I did have some kind of problem not finding the
cyrpt (?) library.  I don't recall the exact details, but I believe this
was a matter of finding the libraries created by OpenSSL.  Two considera-
tions immediately suggest themselves: that the library doesn't exist, or
that mod_ssl/Apache can't find it.  Regarding the former, check your
OpenSSL installation--did it _successfully_ complete, producing the
results expected? (You did capture the output when you created it,
right?)  For the latter, the SSL_BASE path parameter certainly seems
material.  Have you checked that the OpenSSL libraries are being found?

If your results differ from others, then you need to determine _why_ that
is so, which is generally a matter of how _your_ circumstances differ from
others.  That is something only _you_ can determine.  Of course your
circumstances differ--no site is identical to another.  But for
determining the crucial differences, you might start by looking at any
error messages, or anomalous results, and investigate why they occured.
