    Which KeepAlive setting? If you are meaning whether the server supports persistent HTTP connections and how long the relevant timeouts are, then this is not something you can control from .htaccess or php.ini - it is something that can only be configured in the core Apache configuration files.

    Place .htaccess file with this content

    (upload it using FTP or edit it using a SSH terminal)

    <ifModule mod_env.c>
  SetEnv KeepAlive On
  SetEnv KeepAliveTimeout 100
  SetEnv MaxKeepAliveRequests 500
</ifModule>

<ifModule mod_headers.c>
  Header unset Connection
  Header set Connection keep-alive

  Header unset Keep-Alive
  Header set Keep-Alive timeout=100,max=500
</ifModule>

    An even more dynamic than a htaccess folder-based configuration - is a PHP file based-one (and the headers too...) just add it to your PHP file. (Before you've started to output any content to the page)

    <?php
  /* setting Apache */
  apache_setenv("KeepAlive", "On");
  apache_setenv("KeepAliveTimeout", "100");
  apache_setenv("MaxKeepAliveRequests", "500");

  /* setting headers */
  header("Connection: keep-alive");
  header("Keep-Alive: timeout=100, max=500");

?>
