Special Purpose Environment Variables
Interoperability problems have led to the introduction of mechanisms to modify
the way Apache behaves when talking to particular clients. To make these
mechanisms as flexible as possible, they are invoked by defining environment
variables, typically with BrowserMatch, though SetEnv and
PassEnv could also be used, for example.
nokeepalive
This disables KeepAlive when set. Because
of problems with Netscape 2.x and KeepAlive, we recommend the following
directive be used:
BrowserMatch Mozilla/2 nokeepalive
force-response-1.0
This forces an HTTP/1.0 response when set. It was originally implemented as a
result of a problem with AOL's proxies. Some clients may not behave correctly
when given an HTTP/1.1 response, and this can be used to interoperate with
them.
