SetEnvIf User-Agent ".*MSIE.*" \

nokeepalive ssl-unclean-shutdown \

  1. Bugs & Notes
  • Socket can't bind to port for a minute or so after peer stops. Shutting it officially, blocking, autoflush don't work. netstat -tupl and lsof -i 1729 show that the port is freed immediately, but it still won't bind until after the delay.
