Hello, on the sun box I assume you are running the iPlanet server or 
something for SunOS? Just in case you are running Apache: I have always had 
to make and entry in the httpd.conf file for SSL. Typically, for Apache, 
non-ssl is port 80 which hopefully it is for the sun box. For SSL I have to 
make a separate entry in httpd.conf for port 443, the so-called SSL port for 
the same virtual or NamedHost and ip address. Apache automatically switches 
between the to http protocols depending on whether http is used or https is 
used in the url request. Hope this helps, David.
