I'm way behind my reading on this list, so I've only just read this one.
Historically Apache had three config files (httpd.conf, access.conf and
srm.conf). These were all combined into httpd.conf. However, distributions
like Red Hat split the ssl configuration into an ssl.conf file. In the case
of 9 this is in /etc/httpd/conf/conf.d.

The simple answer is that it's up to you. Simply renaming the ssl.conf in
/etc/httpd/conf.d will prevent its use (it's included with "Include
conf.d/*.conf" in httpd.conf), but the configuration will have to go in the
httpd.conf file.

Can you send me more details off list? I've not come across this before and
I've not had to change this ssl.conf file at all. I suspect that you may be
trying to run Apache 2.0 with a lot of Apache 1.3 directives that are now
out of date.
