Re: apache-1.3.x strange behaviour on keep-alives


Robert,

thanks for the reply.

The described effect has been seen on WinNT4sp6 and Win2000 (both
workstations).

Thanks for the instructions. The problem is that the effect is shown
after a couple of days incoming HTTP requests to the httpd. Usually
you can not simulate it using benchmark tools like apache's ab :(( --
so an interative approach to get back to a working DLL versions seems
very inconvienent.

That's why I am trying to ask the Cygwin core folks to assist me.
