This is what I wrote (bug 8122): : SUBJECT: SSLMutex option settings not honoured : : With the SSLMutex option the user could (in 1.3.x) ask for file based : or semaphore based locking. Now mod_ssl asks apr for the default : mechanism. Which is not a bad thing, but the option values should : reflect what is provided. : : I suggest using the same options as for the AcceptMutex option or : using a backward compatible style: : : sem = sysvsem : file: = flock | fcntl (whatever is preferred on the platform) I thought it was good (enough). To clarify: Even if the users sets SSLMutex to "file", mod_ssl may use semaphores. That is bogus (and IMHO well described by the subject). > The key to remember is that none of us are directly paid to work > on Apache.

As said before, my posting was not meant as an accusation. It was just my impression that it is better to post a patch than to file a bug (even with patch) if you want to get attention. But never mind. Now I know and will improve my bug reporting style. Masi
