You probably have another NameVirtualHost *:80 directive set in another
included config file. You can also check

information.

Yes it is possible. The actual commands are dependent on the firmware and
device manufacturer. For instance if you have an LSI card you'll want to
look into the "MegaCLI."

I recently tried to list contents of some of the CVS servers without doing a

hot spots in the development tree based on recent commits. I believe this

Maybe it's more attributable to increased interest and the increase has
brought a proportional increase in what you call "trolls." More noise is
distracting but has "fringe" benefits...sometimes...

If you have to know why I didn't send a patch yet, it's because I'm working
on a patch for an Atheros chip at the moment. That's also why I didn't do
