I checked, and even though I have the OpenSSL 1.0.1g package installed, it appears that httpd was compiled against OpenSSL 1.0.0. When I look at the start up log, it says: [Mon Apr 14 15:49:34 2014] [notice] Apache/2.2.23 (Unix) DAV/2 mod_jk/1.2.37 PHP/5.3.28 mod_ssl/2.2.23 OpenSSL/1.0.0-fips configured -- resuming normal operations On another test server, I upgraded to the latest 2.2.x httpd I can get from Amazon, which is 2.2.26. I re-started and still can't seem to use the ECDHE algorithms. On that same (second) test server I upgraded to httpd 2.4.9. Here is the startup log message there: [Fri Apr 18 15:53:26.330856 2014] [mpm_prefork:notice] [pid 15337] AH00163: Apache/2.4.9 (Amazon) OpenSSL/1.0.1e-fips PHP/5.5.10 mod_jk/1.2.40 configured -- resuming normal operations I'm now able to use the ECDHE ciphers. Everything appears to be dynamically-linked, so I can't understand why 2.2.x reports it's running with OpenSSL 1.0.0 when I clearly have 1.0.1 installed. This is almost certainly an Amazon-Linux-related thing if you were able to get ECDHE ciphers working on 2.2.x. I wonder, what does your startup string say about OpenSSL? The good news is that I really did only have to put it in my ciphers list. Thanks, -chris
