To test it, 1. I set up a named pipe a.file 2. I execute cat < index.html > a.file 3.

I hadn't seen the OP ... Anyway, apache's default handler serves a file. If you want to serve from a pipe, you'll need another handler. Or an alternative such as a CGI script. Having said that, it looks like enabling a pipe should be a very straightforward hack to the default handler. Just test r->finfo.filetype for a pipe, and if it is, make a pipe bucket of it (and avoid inappropriate ops like setting Content-Length or Last-Modified from the finfo). -- Nick Kew --------------------------------------------------------------------- The official User-To-User support forum of the Apache HTTP Server Project.
