the special-purpose environment variable 'nokeepalive' can be conditionally set
to disable keepalive connections.

http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.2/env.html#special

this example uses browsermatch to turn off keepalive for buggy browsers, you
could apply this special-purpose environment variable to other tests:


BrowserMatch "Mozilla/2" nokeepalive
BrowserMatch "MSIE 4\.0b2;" nokeepalive downgrade-1.0 force-response-1.0

Re: conditional keep alive

thanks sean

so what i need is to turn off keep alive if a special http header is
missing say AK=1
browserMatch only works on HTTP_USER_AGENT i need something to match a
custom header

KeepAlive On
MaxKeepAliveRequests 100
KeepAliveTimeout 15

if special header is missing: nokeepalive
