Qualys have provided a very useful tool for checking that the SSL side of your website is correctly configured.
The SSL Server Test can be found here. The tool is available free of charge and will carry out a real-time ( completes in less than a minute ) analysis of the configuration on your ( or any ) webserver.
It is a simple way to make sure that after configuring your website for SSL that the server is responding with the correct certificates, that the best protocols are being used and if the server is vulnerable to attack (such as the BEAST attack or a DoS attack)
