I'm having connection problems. Running server status 90% of the

What does this mean?
This means that these processes are reading requests being sent to them. If
most of your processes are in reading state, you either have a massive
network problem, or somebody is trying to DoS you by opening connections and
very slowly sending requests that never actually do get finished, thereby
tying up the process/thread. Have a look at
http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.2/mod/core.html#timeout to see how you can
reduce the time Apache will wait in Reading state.
