Here is the minimalistic configuration file I've used to do my testings.
-- /etc/lighttpd/test.conf server.document-root = "/var/www/html/" server.modules += ( "mod_openssl" ) $SERVER["socket"] == "0.0.0.0:443" { ssl.engine = "enable" ssl.pemfile = "/etc/lighttpd/cert.pem" ssl.privkey = "/etc/lighttpd/privkey.pem" ssl.cipher-list = "HIGH" }
