Thank you everyone who helped. As Anthony suggested I had Apache SSL enabled with my Redhat installation I just couldn't tell by looking at httpd.conf file. But once I started apache directly instead of resin (the server I'm trying to install) I could connect on https://localhost.
Now off I go to see why resin can't listen on secure port. thanks again very much --- "Anthony E.
