I am not sure why since the front connection should be terminated in 5 min? Timeouts only apply while Apache is waiting for something to happen. Apache isn't waiting on anything from the browser, so there's no 5min timeout in effect. -- Eric Covener covener@xxxxxxxxx --------------------------------------------------------------------- The official User-To-User support forum of the Apache HTTP Server Project.
