Overview
In order to protect a web site with SSL, you will need to make sure mod_ssl is available and functional, then create a virtual host that listens on port different from the non-SSL protected sites (usually 443), turn the SSLEngine on for that virtual host, and specify the paths to the certificate and the private key.
Procedure
Install mod_ssl and openssl
yum install mod_ssl yum install openssl
By default, this ends up installing mod_ssl.so in /etc/httpd/modules. It also creates the default SSL configuration file ssl.conf in /etc/httpd/conf.d.
