Well, I was not absolutely correct, I use mod_pcgi2. Also tried fastcgi,
but looking in the REQUEST both case, no SSL related variable :-((((
The vars are there, I can use them in apache's conf (eg. write the
SSL_CLIENT_S_DN to the log file).
Are the vars should be in the REQUEST? Or I should look in somewhere else?
Sorry, if I'm asking trivial things.
