假设apache已经装好
1、使用yum install openssl,安装openssl
2、开启httpd.conf中LoadModule ssl_module modules/mod_ssl.so
3、制作证书
有一个工具可以使用：http://www.openssl.org/contrib/ssl.ca-0.1.tar.gz 。下面是如何通过这个工具来生成证书的过程：
#cp ssl.ca-0.1.tar.gz
/usr/local/apache/httpd/conf
#cd
/usr/local/apache/conf
#tar zxvf
ssl.ca-0.1.tar.gz
#cd
ssl.ca-0.1
#./new-root-ca.sh
(生成根证书)

Country Name (2 letter code) [MY]:CN
State or Province Name (full name) [Perak]:GanSu//随你喜欢
Locality Name (eg, city) [Sitiawan]:LanZhou//随你喜欢
Organization Name (eg, company) [My Directory Sdn Bhd]:lzu//随你喜欢
Organizational Unit Name (eg, section) [Certification
Services Division]:lzu//随你喜欢
Common
Name (eg, MD Root CA) []:dslab//随你喜欢
Email Address []:sunyanmeng@gmail.com//随你喜欢
这样就生成了ca.key和ca.crt两个文件，下面还要为我们的服务器生成一个证书：
# ./new-server-cert.sh server (这个证书的名字是server)
......
......
Country Name (2 letter code) [MY]:CN
State or Province Name (full name) [Perak]:GanSu
Locality Name (eg, city) [Sitiawan]: LanZhou
Organization Name (eg, company) [My Directory Sdn Bhd]:lzu
Organizational Unit Name (eg, section) [Secure Web
Server]:lzu
Common Name (eg,
www.domain.com) []:localhost
Email
Address []:sunyanmeng@gmail.com
这样就生成了server.csr和server.key这两个文件。
还需要签署一下才能使用的：
# ./sign-server-cert.sh
server
CA signing: server.csr ->
server.crt:
Using configuration from
ca.config
Enter pass phrase for
./ca.key: (输入上面设置的根证书密码)
Check that the
request matches the signature

server.crt: OK
下面要按照ssl.conf里面的设置，将证书放在适当的位置。
# chmod 400 server.key
# cd ..
# mkdir ssl.key
# mv ssl.ca-0.1/server.key ssl.key
# mkdir ssl.crt
# mv ssl.ca-0.1/server.crt ssl.crt
4、配置ssl.conf(/etc/httpd/conf/ssl.conf)
打开ssl.conf文件
<VirtualHost *:443>
DocumentRoot "/var/www/html/"#你的WEB目录，和vhost里配置一样。
ServerName
www.xxx.com:443
SSLCertificateFile /etc/httpd/conf.d/ssl.crt#你的文件在哪里就写哪里的路径
SSLCertificateKeyFile /etc/httpd/conf.d/ssl.key#你的文件在哪里就写哪里的路径
SSLCertificateChainFile /etc/httpd/conf.d/ca.crt#你的文件在哪里就写哪里的路径
</VirtualHost>
5、加载ssl的方式启动apache（这步很重要）
找到你的apachectl位置，
apachectl -D SSL -k start
