Hi,

I am new to this list. I am trying to explain my problem and how I can solve
it with mod_ssl. For that I have a load of questions :-)

My setup:
 - Win 98
 - Apache 1.3.24
 - WebDAV 1.0.3
 - PHP 4.2.0
 - gzip 1.3.19.1a

What I try to do:
I try to host some websites for my family.
For that I use a bunch of virtualhost, each site has his virtual host name.
For each site there is a WebFolder Access to edit pages.

They are stored like this:

  Path
     ->  URL
     ->  WebDAV Web Folder

  d:/webroot/www/Site1/
     ->  http://site1.server.net/
     ->  http://server.net/dav_site1/  (/dav_site1/ alias of www/site1/)
  d:/webroot/www/Site2/
     ->  http://site2.server.net/
     ->  http://server.net/dav_site2/  (/dav_site2/ alias of www/site2/)
  d:/webroot/www/Site3/
     ->  http://site3.server.net/
     ->  http://server.net/dav_site3/  (/dav_site3/ alias of www/site3/)

As you seen I have a bunch of virtual host for all the sites. And just 1
host with a bunch of alias for webDAV.
To this point I have no problem and this is work very well.

BUT, some old firewall doesn't support the http WebDAV extension. For this,
mod_ssl is the solution: Encrypt WebDAV in a ssl tunnel. At this point old
firewall just let the SSL canal pass thru and with ssl, WebDAV :-) If I have
read correctly SSL doesn't work on virtual host and I don't need it. I just
need it on the aliased hosts going thru SSl.

NOW the questions :-)

Is it possible to keep all my ordinary sites on the http protocol and put
the WebDAV web folder on https ?
I have downloaded "Apache_1.3.24-Mod_SSL_2.8.8-OpenSSL_0.9.6c-WIN32.zip". Is
it enough ?
How I can configure my httpd.conf ?

Thank for the help.
