I'm having difficulty getting mod_ssl working with Apache 1.3.3 on my machine (Digital 
Unix 4.0d)

I've followed the instructions in mod_ssl's INSTALL file, using SSLeay-0.9.0b and 
rsaref-2.0 . Once everything was built, I tried doing a "make certifcate TYPE=test", 
which crashed with the message:

  Generating RSA private key, 1024 bit long modulus
  ............./support/mkcert.sh: 22846 Memory fault

Ignoring that problem for a moment, I dig a "make certificate TYPE=dummy", which 
apparently worked.  Then I installed and tried out the server in HTTP-only and 
SSL-enabled mode.

I should say here that the only thing unusual about my setup is that, since I'm not 
root, my HTTP server runs on port 4242 and SSL on port 8443.  All SSL-related entries 
in httpd.conf are the defaults.  ("Listen" is listening for the correct ports)

HTTP mode (http://mymachine.foo.com:4242) works fine both in http-only and ssl-enabled 
mode.  However, when I run "apache startssl", then try to hit 
"https://mymachine.foo.com:8443", Netscape reports that it's waiting for a reply and 
sits there forever.

When I try "s_client -host localhost -port 8443" in SSLeay, I get:

  CONNECTED(00000003)
  depth=0 /C=XY/ST=Snake Desert/L=Snake Town/O=Snake Oil, Ltd/OU=Certificate 
Authority/CN=Snake Oil [EMAIL PROTECTED]
  verify error:num=18:self signed certificate
  verify return:1

then SSLeay also hangs, until I kill it.

No error messages are generated in Apache's "access" or "error" logfiles.

Thanks to anyone who can help sort this problem out. Figuring out what's causing the 
"make certificate TYPE=test" memory problem would be good, but right now I'm more 
interested in getting the thing working in ANY form, if only with the dummy 
certificate. If I've left out any critical pieces of information, let me know.
