Bingo. The binary version will run just fine on it's own without SSL.

If you want SSL you can just drop in the mod_ssl.so module (+ the required
openssl dlls) and you are ready to do. You can either download the source
and compile it yourself (not too difficult, assuming you have a compiler and
know how to use it). Or you can grab it here:
<a style='text-decoration: underline;' href="http://rab.members.easyspace.com/apache-ssl/" target="_blank">http://rab.members.easyspace.com/apache-ssl/</a> where I keep the latest version
compiled, just drop these files into the listed places and you're ready to
go.
