This is to announce a new module for Apache 2.0.x named mod_nss.
mod_nss provides SSL support using the NSS crypto libraries.
It sounds really cool.
It is a derivation of mod_ssl from Apache 2.0.54. [...]. The two modules
are more or less functionally equivalent.
Hum, hum. A little while back I found that it's quite annoying that in
everycase where an apache/mod_ssl server is configured to refuse a
connexion (for example as the consequence of a SSLRequire directive), it
will drop it down at the SSL level and there's no way to redirect to an
error page instead.
IIS can do that, and it's not so nice to have to tell people there's no
way to do it with apache/mod_ssl and give the rejected clients anything
but a blank page with no explanation about what went wrong.
What sorts of reasons are you interested in?
So that's a point where I would enjoy it if mod_nss were not
functionnally equivalent :-)
And it's a pity that as long as bug 116168 is not solved, there's no way
that module can include support for server name indication that
mod_gnutls is already doing.
I'm not familiar with this bug nor does that bug number bring anything
up on http://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/. Can you provide some more details?
