Re: Apache port help

[John Hudak <jjhudak@xxxxxxxxx>]

Seems to me this whole rant got started because someone who appears to be well indoctrinated in the M$ world thought that Apache was somehow a lesser program because it did have a mechanism to support port sharing.  That is a discussion for the developers thread and if you feel strongly about it, then you can devote your time to push that concept.  As I see it, this is not a new concept.  In the 2000's the buzz word is 'virtualization'....It depends on the design goals of the program as to what concept needs to be pushed.   Sharing a port is yet another level of abstractions/indirection that most likely can decrease performance.  (e.d. somthing M$ has not been overly concerned about, just look at Vista).  There are also security issues (something else  M$...well you get the picture).
Am glad the OP solved the issue.

No http.sys makes it Windows only
but so does WSA commands now!
 
Anyway a lot of .NET (CLR really) is
in Mono and the many Silverlight .NET
usage versions for most OS browsers.
 
Remember C# is a standard now
and .NET is Microsft's version of it!
 
FYI
