This is pretty WOT for the OpenSSL list, as OpenSSL is an encryption package; really has nothing to do with Apache mod_ssl, save for the fact that it is the encryption package that Apache mod_ssl uses.
Intrinsically, they are likely very much the same. They are both still pre-built versions of Apache, and building them is likely the same.
So, that having been said, I have been using OpenSA now for 2+ years on Win2k, and the stability is pretty phenomenal. I am at just over six months since my last reboot, and that was because I installed new software. I can't speak for Big Apache, but OpenSA is rock solid. Very pleased.

OpenSA

Per my initial thread, it looks like I cant install ssl on my existing apache/php/mysql installations and Ill have to gut everything out.

They had a problem with their servers the last few days. I verified that all links work.
Thanks,

The file links on the openSA site does not work (old site que?).
An other issue I find very strange is why the Apache2 specifically exludes mod_ssl in the prebuilt windows version!?

Im painfully trying to get SSL on my server. Heres what I have installed and working SUCCESSFULLY thus far:
- Apache 2.0.47
- PHP 4.3.2
- MySQL 4.0.13
All on Windows XP SP1.
Im desperately looking for the following answers to get SSL on the server:
1. QUESTION: Can I add-onSSL with what I already have installed without reinstalling/rearranging/messing things up?
2. QUESTION: If yes, where can I download the windows version
3. QUESTION: Where can I find step by step instructions.
