UPS module/secure Http?

An old post regarding SSL said this:

In the VM distribution, there is a folder included called 'certs'. Your host
needs to copy this folder to a directory, probably where the commerce
libraries are, and add the following tag to their mivavm.conf:

cadir=/path/to/certs

OR

If they have the VM configuration tags in the httpd.conf, they would add
this line to the httpd.conf:

SetEnv MvCONFIG_DIR_CA /path/to/certs

Once they have that setup, you should be good to go.

We have it set to:
we have cadir=/home/besmall/public_html/certs
[root@frodo certs]# pwd
/home/besmall/public_html/certs

Is this right?
thanks!
