Apache2 + SSL

[Nelis Lamprecht]

Sorry about the top posting but the person who replied to my question
was rejected( black listed by combined.njabl.org ) by our server and I
found his message below via the web archives.

In reference to the below message.

Putting <IfDefine SSL> instead of <IfModule mod_ssl.c> in my httpd.conf
which Includes ssl.conf causes Apache to complain about all SSL type
commands. eg.

Syntax error on line 76 of /usr/local/etc/apache2/ssl.conf:
Invalid command 'SSLPassPhraseDialog', perhaps mis-spelled or defined by
a module not included in the server configuration

Which leads me to think that perhaps the SSL portion of Apache2 is
faulty ? 

httpd -S -DSSL returns the same thing as httpd -S and shows only the
httpd.conf virtual hosts on port 80.

Thanks.

Try 

<IfDefine SSL>
     Include etc/apache2/ssl.conf
</IfDefine>

httpd -S -DSSL
