Many SSL clients, notably JDK 6, use the SSLv2Hello protocol to handshake with the server. Using this protocol does not mean you are using SSL 2.0 or 3.0 for that matter; it is merely a handshake to determine which protocol to use. [https://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc5246#appendix-E.2]
However, in Apache, if you disable SSLv3 support, this apparently removes support for the SSLv2Hello protocol. Apache Tomcat has explicit support for SSLv2Hello; that is, you can enable that, but not enable SSLv3.
Is there any way to do this in Apache?
[Update]
This is my protocol config:
SSLProtocol +TLSv1 +TLSv1.1 +TLSv1.2 -SSLv3
