OpenSSL give you the SSL *libraries* - to integrate  with Apache you use 
mod_ssl or apachessl. I have not explored the FreeBSD ports completely, .. 
but in general you modify the httpsd.conf (this example assumes you have a 
single secure virtual host; 2nd note - this is a 1.3.4 config file (with 
separate srm.conf and access.conf) - we have not converted to 1.3.6 yet):
