All, I am not clear the relation between KeepAlive and SSL-HandShake. I think if KeepAlive is turned off, the SSL-HandShake will be processed in every request. However, if KeepAlive is turned on, the following requests after the 1st SSL-HandShake during the period of KeepAlive won't need SSL-HandShake. Can some confirm if the above statement is right? Many Thanks, Q.Xie __________________________________ Yahoo!
