Well actually I have been using modssl for a very long time, feeling that it
was more powerfull than the equivalent apache-ssl. But if this situation was
caused by broken browsers, well I can't do anything about it : it is absolutely
impossible and even unthinkable to refuse access to these browsers. If people
want to use them I can not force them not to.
So if the only option to allow them to come in without having a script which
regularly chechs the status of my http processes is to switch to apache_ssl,
well...
Believe me, I checked my confs carefully. But I have no time to look in the
source of modssl myself.
For now, I am not even sure that apache_ssl is working 100% correctly. Still
checking !!!
