That doesn't surprise me to be honest. I would say it was a similar number in 
my case as   well, It's a tricky one to manage because it's not easy to explain 
to customers.I tried to find an alternative solution but there wasn't one, and 
so passed the problem back to the customers/windows admins to fix.

    Dear Ed,

      

      What's surprising me is that I got more than 10% of users
      complaining they can't access our webserver. Are so many people
      equipped with outdated browsers ?

      Hi Denis,
        I've been through exactly the same situation. There isn't
          anything you can do from the apache side to fix this apart
          from enabling insecure renegotiation, but you shouldn't.
        

        
        The customers have to fix their end by possibly upgrading
          to a later browser in the case of FF/Chrome. 
        

        
        Assuming your customers are on Windows, and using IE8 or
          below, then apply http://support.microsoft.com/kb/980436.
          Windows SP3 is a prerequisite.
        

        
        Hope this helps,
        Ed.

              Dear all,

              

              Many users (but not all) are complaining that they can't
              access our SSL webserver.

              

              After some research I found two kind of error in apache
              logs :

              a) Re-negotiation request failed / SSL Library Error:
              336068931 error:14080143:SSL routines:SSL3_ACCEPT:unsafe
              legacy renegotiation disabled

              b) Re-negotiation handshake failed: Not accepted by
              client!?

              

              At first I really don't understand at all why this could
              happen ?

              

              And secondly, I found some advices to add the 
"SSLInsecureRenegotiation

                on" option. Is it a solution, and is it only for very
                old browsers or can it be required for still in use
                browsers ?

                

                Thanks in advance for some help or any hint :-)

                

                Best regards,

                

              Denis
