|  | <h3>Summary</h3> | 
|  |  | 
|  | <p>This module allows for control of internal environment variables that | 
|  | are used by various Apache HTTP Server modules. These variables are also | 
|  | provided to CGI scripts as native system environment variables, and available | 
|  | for use in SSI pages. Environment variables may be passed from the shell | 
|  | which invoked the <code class="program"><a href="../programs/httpd.html">httpd</a></code> process. Alternatively, | 
|  | environment variables may be set or unset within the configuration process.</p> |
