WebTen uses SSLeay which is effectively mod_ssl

The certificate with key can be moved directly over.  SSLeay is just 
an old version of mod_ssl, or the name before it was open sourced.

No, you don't.  The certificates only hold name information, not IP info.

Yes, but you will need the corresponding private key also.  If they 
are hosting other SSL sites, then this is probably a long shot.  If 
that was the only SSL site running on that machine, they might give 
it to you.
