Hello, I tried to set up apache to read dhelp and info2www with my browser, and to learn more about networking also. I've got two questions that aren't strictly laptop-related, but so far i didn't get any reply from other lists, and i know some experienced networkers listening on this port ;-)
(1) Makes sense to start apache from inetd ? ----------------------------------------------------------------- In this special case, it's not neccessary to run server processes all the time. So i removed the rc symlink, and configured: # /etc/inetd.conf: www stream tcp nowait root /usr/sbin/tcpd /usr/sbin/apache # hosts.allow: www: LOCAL, piro.pironic, piro2000.winlan /usr/sbin/apache (occasionally connected with other boxes) # hosts.deny: --- It seems any server process is terminated immediateley after every single request from a broser. In other words, a 'ps aux' doesn't show any apache process when my browser opens localhost:80; only a 'top' does for short. Every single page request newly starts apache from inetd. This menas a really slow performance. I hope my config somehow is suboptimal .... ? Or is this behavior unevitable with inetd. I attach the httpd.conf at the end. (2) Where is mime_magic ? ---------------------------------------- This is probabIy more debian-related... # /var/log/apache/error.log: >> [Wed Jul 2 19:09:08 2003] [error] (2)No such file or directory: mod_mime_magic: can't read magic file /etc/apache/share/magic << httpd.conf says it's expected to be like "MIMEMagicFile share/magic", but there's no directory 'share' in the server-root at all; i notice only a symlink to the file /etc/mime.types. Can i do sth ? greets -- mi <mrl> -------------------------- Attachments (2) -------------------------------- I.
