Jayaraj,

It would be done via the Apache configuration files. You'd move
everything from the SSL enabled vhost configurations to the non-SSL
vhosts, i.e everything from the port 443 configuration sections to the
port 80 configuration. Some of that configuration is duplicated, so only
the unique things need to go.

There may also be some directives to force SSL on some locations. You'll
want to remove those also.

I'm writing this from memory without looking at the files, which is
alway a bad thing to do, but I think that covers it.

HtH,
Jason
