Everytime when configuring SSL vhost in apache/nginx or any other webserver, security is the main concern. This means that you have to be careful which cipher blocks you want the webserver to impose.
To check a specific ssl cipher suite used in Apache/Nginx:Code:
# grep -i cipher httpd.conf
SSLCipherSuite !aNULL:!eNULL:!EXPORT:!DSS:!DES:!SSLv2:RC4-SHA:RC4-MD5:ALL
Now, to see actual ciphers contained by this cipher suite:
# openssl ciphers -v 'SSLCipherSuite !aNULL:!eNULL:!EXPORT:!DSS:!DES:!SSLv2:RC4-SHA:RC4-MD5:ALL'
RC4-SHA SSLv3 Kx=RSA Au=RSA Enc=RC4(128) Mac=SHA1 ...
