[Zope] How to SSL

Hi Stephan,
Just yesterday I got my system working with SSL.  I chose to take the
VirtualHostMonster path as I was getting frustrated with how SiteRoot was
working.  I'm certainly no expert here, but I found VirtualHostMonster more
intuitive to use with httpd.conf (all proxypass and no rewrite) and what you
describe below works for me with VHM.
Eric.
