Interesting results. Netstat says apache is listening on 443. If i telnet using 127.0.0.1 from the same machine it connects. If I telnet from another machine behind the same firewall it fails with connection refused. The other machine is freebsd with Apache SSL and it can be accessed via HTTPS from outside the firewall with no problem. So it looks like Apache is binding 443 to the local address, I didn't tell it to do that.

Actually, you still have a local firewall that has to be configured to allow incoming 443 connections. You can get to it through the menu screens.
