8 <h3>Compilation</h3>
9 <p>
10 <code>mod_gnutls</code> uses the "<code>configure/make/make install</code>"
11 mechanism common to many Open Source programs.
12 Most of the dirty work is handled by either configure or
13 Apache's apxs utility. If you have built Apache modules before, there
14 shouldn't be any surprises for you.
15 </p>
16 <p>
17 The interesting options you can pass to configure are:</p>
18 <ul>
19 <li><code>--with-apxs=/path/to/apache/dir/bin/apxs</code>
20 <p>
21 This option is used to specify the location of the
22 apxs utility that was installed as part of apache.
23 Specify the location of the binary, not the directory
24 it is located in.
25 </p>
26 </li>
27 <li><code>--with-libgnutls=PATH</code>
28 <p>Full path to the <code>libgnutls-config</code> program.</p>
29 </li>
30 <li><code>--with-apr-memcache=PREFIX</code>
31 <p>Prefix to where <code><a href="/projects/libs/apr_memcache">apr_memcache</a></code> is installed.</p>
32 </li>
33 <li><code>--help</code>
34 <p>Provides a list of available configure options.</p>
35 </li>
36 </ul>

142 <h3>Server Name Indication Example</h3>
143<p><code>mod_gnutls</code> can also use 'Server Name Indication', as specified in
144<a href="http://www.zvon.org/tmRFC/RFC3546/Output/chapter3.html#sub1">RFC 3546</a>. This allows hosting many SSL Websites, with a Single IP Address. Currently all the recent
145browsers support this standard. Here is an example, using SNI:
146</p>
147<pre class="example">
148# Load the module into Apache.
149LoadModule gnutls_module modules/mod_gnutls.so

151# With normal SSL Websites, you need one IP Address per-site.
152Listen 1.2.3.1:443
153# This could also be 'Listen *:443',
154# just like '*:80' is common for non-https
155
156# No caching. Enable session tickets. Timeout is still used for
157# ticket expiration.
158GnuTLSCacheTimeout 600
159
160# This tells apache, that for this IP/Port combination, we want to use

323 <dl>
324 <dt>dbm</dt>
325 <dd>
326 Uses the default Berkeley DB backend of APR DBM to cache SSL Sessions results. The argument is a relative or absolute path to be used
327 as the DBM Cache file. This is compatible with most operating systems.
328 </dd>
329
330 <dt>gdbm</dt>
331 <dd>
332 Uses the GDBM backend of APR DBM to cache SSL Sessions results. The argument is a relative or absolute path to be used
333 as the DBM Cache file.

335
336 <dt>memcache</dt>
337 <dd>
338 Uses a <a href="http://www.danga.com/memcached/">memcached</a> server to cache the SSL Session.
339 The argument is a space separated list of servers. If no port number is supplied,
340 the default of 11211 is used. This can be used to share a session cache between all servers in a cluster.
341 </dd>
342
343 <dt>None</dt>
344 <dd>
345 Turns off all caching of SSL Sessions. This can significantly reduce the performance of <code>mod_gnutls</code>

851 <p>Takes a semi-colon separated list of ciphers, key exchange methods
852 Message authentication codes and compression methods to enable. The
853 allowed keywords are specified in the <code>gnutls_priority_init()</code>
854 function of <code>GnuTLS</code>. It's documentation can be found at
855 <a
856 href="http://www.gnu.org/software/gnutls/manual/html_node/Core-functions.html#Core-functions">Core
857 GnuTLS functions.</a>
858 </p><p>
859 In brief you can specify a set of ciphersuites from the choices:
860 <ul>
861 <li>NONE: The empty list.</li>
862 <li>EXPORT: A list with all the supported cipher combinations
863 including the "EXPORT" strength algorithms.</li>
864 <li>PERFORMANCE: A list with all the secure cipher combinations
865 sorted in terms of performance.</li>
866 <li>NORMAL: A list with all the secure cipher combinations
867 sorted with respect to security margin (subjective term).</li>
868 <li>SECURE: A list with all the secure cipher combinations including the
869 256-bit ciphers sorted with respect to security margin.</li>
870 </ul>
871 Additionally you can add or remove algorithms using the "+" and "!"
872 prefixes respectively. That is in order to disable the ARCFOUR cipher
873 from the "NORMAL" set you can use the string
874 <code>NORMAL:!ARCFOUR-128</code>. Other options such as the protocol
875 version and the compression method can be specified using the
876 <code>VERS-</code> and <code>COMP-</code> prefixes. So in order to
877 remove or add a specific TLS version from the "NORMAL" set use
878 <code>NORMAL:!VERS-SSL3.0</code>. To enable
879 zlib compression use <code>NORMAL:+COMP-DEFLATE</code>.
880 However it is recommended not to add compression at this level.
881 With the "NONE" set, in order to be usable, you have to specify a complete
882 set of combinations of protocol versions, cipher algorithms
883 (AES-128-CBC), key exchange algorithms (RSA), message authentication
884 codes (SHA1) and compression methods (COMP-NULL).
885 </p><p>
886 All the supported algorithms are:
887 <ul>
888 <li>Ciphers: AES-256-CBC, AES-128-CBC, CAMELLIA-256-CBC,
889 CAMELLIA-128-CBC, ARCFOUR-128, 3DES-CBC, ARCFOUR-40</li>
890 <li>Key exchange methods: RSA, DHE-RSA, DHE-DSS, SRP, SRP-RSA,
891 SRP-DSS, ANON-DH</li>
892 <li>Message authentication codes: SHA1, MD5</li>
893 <li>Compression methods: COMP-DEFLATE, COMP-NULL</li>
894 <li>Protocol versions: VERS-TLS1.1, VERS-TLS1.0, VERS-SSL3.0</li>
895 </ul>
896 </p>
897 <p>The special keyword "%COMPAT" will disable some security features
898 such as protection against statistical attacks to ciphertext data in
899 order to achieve maximum compatibility (some broken mobile clients need
900 this).
