Thanks for pointing me into the right direction. I can remember having 
problems with Apache and mod_ssl in the past as they lacked of entropy with 
no keyboard and mouse being attached to the machine. I have just installed 
rng-tools and hope that this might solve the issues.

I'll report on it as soon as I can confirm that this was the cause.

Cheers,
