Q1.Do I need an SSL certificate for a strictly internal web server?
A. Not really, but your users will be annoyed with a security popup =
window every time they try to login to the system. I recommend it

Q2.If yes, how do I get an SSL certificate for our Apache web server.
A. Last time I shopped around these were cheapest:
http://www.comodogroup.com/products/certificate_services/index.html
49$ / year=20
( remind me to post my affiliate code here next time )
=20
Q3.What happens if I upgrade the server/Apache/etc? Do I get a new
certificate?
A. You can use the same certificate until it expires.
