One thing I didn't realize at first, is that for apache to run at all on the server once SSL is setup, the SSL must be configured correctly - that is your non-secure site won't run either, so it's best to test on a spare box if you have important things running there.

As for instructions - it depends on what server (probably apache) and if you have any control panels, as some like Plesk do the configuration for you.
