If you built apache with modssl support <read the FAQ on how to do this if
you have not>, and have setup your httpd.conf file properly <again read
the FAQ on particulars as well as going over the default httpd.conf file
suppiled once apache is compiled with modssl support> then you start
appache like thus:
apachectl startssl
There are variations on this theme, but, this is the standard way to get
apache up with ssl enabled once properly compiled and configured.
Hope this help,
Ron DuFresne
