[NBLUG/talk] Enabling SSL in Apache2?

[Lincoln Peters]

Here's something that should be a simple problem, but apparently isn't:

I'm running Apache2 on Debian/testing.  I want to enable SSL globally for my 
website (i.e. anything you can do via HTTP, you can do via HTTPS).  I would 
expect this to be a simple matter of creating symlinks 
to /etc/apache2/mods-available/{ssl.load,ssl.conf} 
in /etc/apache2/mods-enabled, but that didn't seem to work (I get 
a "connection refused" error when connecting via SSL).  And as usual, the 
official Apache documentation on the matter is incredibly terse.

So what am I missing?
