You're not meant to run without doing your own configuration. The default configuration from apache.org. I have read through all of it and It all seems fine. I know long ago httpd used to ship with the default port being 8080 to force you to read the file but that isn't the case anymore. My guess would be it's your networking. Could it be, for example, that you're forcing HostnameLookups, but have DNS timing out? It would seem not. There is no reference to HostnameLookups in my config and the docs say the default is off. I don't see how it can be networking when another web server works on the same port (obviously not at the same time). -- Nick Kew --------------------------------------------------------------------- The official User-To-User support forum of the Apache HTTP Server Project.
