This problem applies to any version of Netscape Browsers on the MAC
platform.

We're running the following configuration:

-Apache-SSL 1.3.9 compiled with mod_perl 1.21 running on RedHat 6.2
(intel).

Whenever I try to connect (authenticated via .htaccess) to a cgi script
over SSL using Netscape on the Mac the page takes forever to load (up
to 20 seconds).

I've done a snoop on the packets being sent during the session
confirming that Apache is taking longer than normal to respond:

58 5.94830 192.168.1.62 -> test.fastsend.com HTTPS C port=1251
59 22.31429 test.fastsend.com -> 192.168.1.62 HTTPS R port=1251

Has anyone experienced something similar to this?

Whenever I've seen something like that, it has been becase apache was
doing hostname lookups and couldn't resolve the IP (in your case
192.168.1.62, and it looks like whatever you have snooping, is trying to
do lookups but is failing on that IP too). Set up your DNS or make sure
both HostNameLookups is set to Off, and you don't have any access rules
where you use something like *.domain.com

Do you have a reverse DNS entry for 192.168.1.62?
