I've been working with this extensively in recent weeks, using Apache,
mod_ssl, and PHP.
Apache Advantages :
- Fast to set up
- Powerful remote admin capabilities
- Stable
- Secure
- OS and Application free for any number of sites and users
Disadvantages :
- Requires knowledge of Linux to set up
- Doesn't support ASP *
If you have any more questions about setup, installation, config, etc.,
please mail me off-list.

* There are ASP implementations for Linux, but these are not recommended.
