10 The same way as you would configure it on any apache installation. The ssl
11 USE flag comes enabled as a default. Therefore all you need to do (going
12 from memory here) is to add:
13
14 SSLCertificateFile /path-to-your.crt
15 SSLCertificateKeyFile /path-to-your-secure-key.ca
16 (you'll need to create these two first)
17
18 Then add:
19
20 SSLEngine on
21
22 under the respective (virtual)host part. If you also want it to listen on
23 some obscure port rather than the default 443 then add Listen NNNN for the
24 port number that you have configured for your SSL enabled (virtual) host.
