Apache 1.3 + mod_ssl 2.1 ``mod_ssl combines the flexibility of
======================== Apache with the security of SSLeay.''
This is Apache version 1.3 plus mod_ssl which provides strong cryptography
via the Secure Sockets Layer (SSL v2/v3) and Transport Layer Security (TLS
v1) protocols by the help of the SSL/TLS implementation library SSLeay from
Eric A. Young and Tim J. Hudson. The mod_ssl package was created in April
1998 by Ralf S. Engelschall and was originally derived from software
developed by Ben Laurie for use in the Apache-SSL HTTP server project.
As a summary, here are its main SSL/TLS-related features:
