Since the 37.0.1 update FireFox users cannot connect to an https:// on my Linux-based Apache server (Server version: Oracle-HTTP-Server/2.2.14 (Unix)).

I know just enough about the server-side to configure hostnames and domain names and such, but not enough about the SSL configuration or other http configuration to meet the new requirements of this browsing client.

IE thru version 11 and Chrome browsing clients are not having this problem.

Many of our customers do not have low enough access to their own systems, or the skill to customize their own FireFox configurations to work around the changes implemented in 37.0.1, so I want to fix this on the server side.

https://wiki.mozilla.org/Security/Server_Side_TLS is how Mozilla sets up our servers, it's suggested you follow this to ensure security. https://www.ssllabs.com/ is also a good resource.

You can also check the Browser Console and Web Console (Firefox/Tools > Web Developer) for errors related to weak cipher suites.
