Do you know how these 2 could work each other?
I've read the tutorials and manuals I found but none of it is really understandable and could anyone tell me how to use Open SSL as well?

What do you mean by "could work each other"?

mod_perl provides the possibility to write your own Apache modules using Perl. It also makes the scripts load faster in Apache. If you want to see an example, look in your cgi-bin folder.
OpenSSL is the basically the crypto algorithm used to secure websites with SSL. In order to use that you need a SSL supporting webserver like ApacheSSL.
You can get OpenSSL and its docs here:http://www.openssl.org
Apache and its docs here:http://www.apache-ssl.org
Or do you have questions how to configure this?

Thanks
