If you enable the SSL environment variables, you can access the information
via php, etc.
For example, in my access.conf
<Location /php3>
SSLOptions +StdEnvVars
</Location>
And the corresponding php code.
<?php
echo "You have connected with a $SSL_CIPHER_USEKEYSIZE bit $SSL_CIPHER
algorithm";
?>
Output:
You have connected with a 128 bit RC4-MD5 algorithm
All of the variables are listed in the ModSSL documentation.
