Questions tagged [mod-ssl]

The Apache Httpd interface to OpenSSL

mod_ssl is a module for the Apache HTTPD webserver which allows it to perform SSL and TLS encryption on connections. Documentation is provided by Apache covering installation and setup for httpd 2.0 and 2.2

This tag should be used for questions around compiling, building, configuring, extending, provisioning, debugging and using mod_ssl.

For questions around building Apache modules on top of mod_ssl, or working on the code, the mod-ssl tag on StackOverflow is likely to be a better place to ask.
