Subject: Linux - Apache mod_ssl problems

I am doing my first attempt at SSL on Linux.
I have installed and compiled in openssl, mod_ssl for apache.
I created a new certificate which is accepted by the server.
I configured a VirtualHost in httpd.conf for secure site. (I am NOT using name virtual host for the SSL site)
I can run httpd -l and see that all modules are installed.
I start apache with apachectl startssl; enter the passphrase and start up is OK
Using 'netstat' I can see https is Listening
Using 'ps' I can see all the instances of httpd -DSSL running
I can access all the non-SSL sites with no problem, but
For some reason, when I try to access the site with https://www.somesite.com it times out.
There are no errors in the logs files - no access attempts.
I CAN connect to the https site if I access it FROM the webserver itself (using Lynx)
Anyone have success with SSL and have some suggestions ??
Thanks,
Rick Dennis
