I don't have a clear answer, but here is some material that should help your research : http://www.apache-ssl.org/#mod_ssl Apache-SSL is not mod_ssl http://www.modssl.org/docs/2.6/ssl_faq.html#ToC3 What are the functional differences between mod_ssl and Apache-SSL, from where it is originally derived? http://www.mail-archive.com/modssl-users@modssl.org/msg15792.html mod_ssl is derived originally from Apache SSL mod_ssl is more widely used than Apache SSL Apache SSL supports Apache 1.x mod_ssl supports Apache 1.x and 2.x I would add that with mod_ssl you only need one Apache daemon. If your SSL server has low traffic, with apache-ssl you don't waste memory with idle threads that can't be used to serve HTTP requests. And that's one less daemon to maintain : one httpd.conf instead of two. I don't know about the finer points. All I can say is that there really seem to be an alternative.
