Re: SetEnv HTTPS on... not working.

[Mxrgus Pxrt <margus@xxxxxxxx>]

I have SSL offloader, what checks wheather user came using HTTP or HTTPS 
(sends accordingly header.)

As I want it to be transparent to application and available to 
.htaccess, I use apaches values. I want to overwrite them.


Br,
Margus
