I want to authenticate modules(certificate based) against each other before any communcation takes place among .Modules may reside on local and remote servers. In both cases,Is mod_ssl enough for authentication or I have to implement the authentication functionality in each module seperately ?

mod_ssl only encrypts the communications from client to/from server. OpenSSL (on which mod_ssl is based) can be used to encrypt other sorts of network streams, but I have really no idea what kind of communication you are talking about or what you mean by "modules" (obviously not apache modules, since those can't be "remote").
