This is information right from the Apache-SSL page.  I would read both the Mod_ssl and Apache_ssl doc's and see
if one is going to do a better job for your conditions then the other.  Also it is always easier to find a bug in 3 applications
working as one, then it is to find one in one application.

http://www.modssl.org/docs/2.8/ssl_faq.html#ToC3 (is the Mod_ssl page.  Review the two and make a decision
from there.  I do not think you can go wrong with either.)  One note is that if I am reading this correct, Apache_SSL
only works with Apache 1.3.

Apache-SSL is not mod_ssl
There appears to be some confusion regarding Apache-SSL and mod_ssl. To set the record straight: mod_ssl is not a replacement for Apache-SSL - it is an alternative, in the same way that Apache is an alternative to Netscape/Microsoft servers, or Linux is an alternative to FreeBSD. It is a matter of personal choice as to which you run. mod_ssl is what is known as a 'split' - i.e. it was originally derived from Apache-SSL, but has been extensively redeveloped so the code now bears little relation to the original.
Apache-SSL continues to be developed and maintained, our main focus being on reliability, security and performance, rather than features and bells and whistles. I hope this makes things clear. (Adam Laurie).

Good Luck....
