ok bottom it is -

I now have apache running with the new certs and it is watching both secure and normal ports.

on the normal port (80) I see the imp login page and on the 443 page, I see the Fedora Core test page.

I'd like to not see imp on port 80, and instead I will put a page that I have yet to create.  I want imp to be on https (443).  

How can I do this?  

Or maybe a more basic question: If I am serving both secure and nonsecure pages, will there be two distinct sets of files (trees) under /var/www?  If so, what are the two tree roots?

Thanks
