  <title>SSL/TLS Strong Encryption: Compatibility</title>

<summary>
<p>
This page covers backwards compatibility between mod_ssl and other
SSL solutions.  mod_ssl is not the only SSL solution for Apache; four
additional products are (or were) also available: Ben Laurie's freely
available <a href="http://www.apache-ssl.org/">Apache-SSL</a> (from
where mod_ssl were originally derived in 1998), Red Hat's commercial
Secure Web Server (which was based on mod_ssl), Covalent's commercial
Raven SSL Module (also based on
mod_ssl) and finally C2Net's (now Red Hat's) commercial product <a
href="http://www.redhat.com/explore/stronghold/">Stronghold</a> (based
on a different evolution branch, named Sioux up to Stronghold 2.x, and
based on mod_ssl since Stronghold 3.x).</p>

<p>
mod_ssl mostly provides a superset of the functionality of all the other
solutions, so it's simple to migrate from one of the older modules to
mod_ssl. The configuration directives and environment variable names
used by the older SSL solutions vary from those used in mod_ssl;
mapping tables are included here to give the equivalents used by mod_ssl.</p>
</summary>

<section id="configuration"><title>Configuration Directives</title>
<p>The mapping between configuration directives used by Apache-SSL
1.x and mod_ssl 2.0.x is given in <a href="#table1">Table
1</a>. The mapping from Sioux 1.x and Stronghold 2.x is only partial
because of special functionality in these interfaces which mod_ssl
doesn't provide.</p>

<section id="customlog"><title>Custom Log Functions</title>
<p>
When mod_ssl is enabled, additional functions exist for the <a
href="../mod/mod_log_config.html#formats">Custom Log Format</a> of
<module>mod_log_config</module> as documented in the Reference
Chapter. Beside the ``<code>%{</code><em>varname</em><code>}x</code>''
eXtension format function which can be used to expand any variables provided
by any module, an additional Cryptography
``<code>%{</code><em>name</em><code>}c</code>'' cryptography format function
exists for backward compatibility. The currently implemented function calls
are listed in <a href="#table3">Table 3</a>.</p>
