Hi Harold,

Thank you so much for writing me back!

When I first started looking at SSL, I noticed alot of references to
ssl.conf. Where I really got confused is, I did a full search on the
computer, and that file didn't exist. I did find a file called openssl.cnf.
So, I copied that file as ssl.conf and added an include in httpd.conf. But,
when I start Apache, I get errors, and it can't start. I'm beginning to
wonder if apache is even configured to work with ssl. I'm running webmin
1.30 and I look in there at the installed modules, and mod_ssl is there. Do
I need to do anything else? Is there a setup for apache somewhere where I
tell it to run ssl?

Where do you get this guide from?

I have a really good apache book that stepped through the process of
creating a key and certificate, but I'd like to see what redhat says about
it.

Thanks again for your help,

Jody Cleveland
