How many IP address do you have?
If you just have one IP for the whole box it will messup the rest of the
vertual domains.

I know this happens on the Raq3 with only one IP address because when I
installed my SSL on my main domain name it automaticly made the admin pages
SSL and my server locked up. the only way I could get into the server was
through  https//www.domainname.com:81/.cobalt/siteManage/home/?goto=4,0 and
delete the ssl key and sert.

I was told it was because with one IP the server was thinking it had 2
domains on the same ip using SSL (site admin and www.domainname.com)
I put another IP for the main site and had to do alot of editing in the http
config and now it works fine.
