10.5.66. Configuration Directives for SSL

SetEnvIf sets environment variables based on the headers of incoming connections. It is not solely an SSL directive, though it is present in the supplied /etc/httpd/conf.d/ssl.conf file. It's purpose in this context is to disable HTTP keepalive and to allow SSL to close the connection without a closing notification from the client browser. This setting is necessary for certain browsers that do not reliably shut down the SSL connection.
