Description David Tonhofer 2008-06-04 15:37:42 UTC
Description of problem:

The following can be found in the SSL config file:

#
#   Some MIME-types for downloading Certificates and CRLs
#
AddType application/x-x509-ca-cert .crt
AddType application/x-pkcs7-crl    .crl

I suggest to move it into the httpd.conf instead as .crt and .crl files
may be accessed even if SSL is not used at all.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

httpd-2.2.3-11.el5_1.3
mod_ssl-2.2.3-11.el5_1.3

Comment 1 Joe Orton 2008-07-15 13:48:47 UTC
Thanks for the suggestion!  I've committed this change in the Fedora httpd
package so it will be picked up in RHEL6+.  If there is sufficient motivation to
change the default configs for future RHEL5 updates, I'll reopen this; but this
alone is not sufficient to warrant a default config change.
