As far as I know, if you install openSSL, that actually configure apache to
use SSL. But I never tried that (so, don't shout at me if it does not work,
ok?).

And if you want to install apache again, thats pretty simple. Just do the
whole installation process once again. This time make sure to include the
switches. This will simply overwrite the old files and you will be able to
get it up without any further trouble.

(Please remember, I do not take any responsibility for the free advice I
give ;-)  )

I.

Is there a way to add the SSL support "after the fact?"  I compiled and
simply forgot to add the flag.  The flag I used to compile is:

./configure --prefix=/usr/local/apache --enable-mods-shared=most

What would I do to simply add the SSL in afterward?  From what I can
tell this shop doesn't do the DSO approach, so that's perhaps not an
option.

Is there a static way to do this or should I start from scratch?

REMOVAL question:

If I need to wipe it all and start from scratch -is there a smart way to
go about removing apache?

Here's what I did in total, it's been working great, save for my error
in not getting SSL on there.  -would I be better off with just using
enable-mods-shared ALL (that includes SSL right?)

cd /usr/local/src

wget http://www.mirrorgeek.com/apache.org/httpd/httpd-2.0.58.tar.gz

tar -xzf httpd-2.0.58.tar.gz
cd httpd-2.0.58

./configure --prefix=/usr/local/apache --enable-mods-shared=most

make

make install

ln -s /usr/local/apache/bin/apachectl /etc/rc.d/init.d/httpd

cp -v /usr/local/src/build/configs/httpd.conf /usr/local/apache/conf/

cp -v /usr/local/src/build/configs/index.html /usr/local/apache/htdocs/

vi /usr/local/apache/conf/httpd.conf
