Using SSL without any additional access control mechanisms just means that the
server authenticates itself to the client and that the data transfer is
encrypted. But nevertheless _everybody_ still can access the site. Seems like
you still have not fully understood what SSL does and what not. Please read
the Introduction chapter in the mod_ssl User Manual or consult other papers or
books for details.
