+Your ports.conf may already have an IfModule clause in it for the SSL portion. If you see this, you can just leave it as-is:
+
+{{{
+<IfModule mod_ssl.c>
+    Listen 443
+</IfModule>
+}}}

 With these two steps out of the way you now have an Apache setup which will listen for and accept SSL connections. The next step is to modify your virtualhosts to use it.
 
  === Configuring your SSL Hosts ===
 The final step is to ensure that your virtual hosts, or main host, will accept SSL options

+Configure HTTPS over port 443 (edit /etc/apache2/sites-available/default-ssl):

+{{{
+NameVirtualHost *:443
+(Note: Look down just a bit and make a change to the virtual host settings.)
+<VirtualHost *:443>
+ServerName localhost
+DocumentRoot /var/www-ssl/html/
+(Note: Again, use your assigned IP or a DNS name followed with ":443" if you have one for ServerName.)
