The idea isn't bad - we took much of it into metuxmpm, but there were major design problems. For example: each childs can accept clients. That's very bad, because it allows some user to intercept another's requests with some probability. The whole idea of passing *sockets* (instead of requests) between processes only works on very few systems, ie. Linux, BSD and perhaps some others. So the whole portability issue is useless - those MPMs only work some Unix'es, and there evrythere the same. cu -- --------------------------------------------------------------------- Enrico Weigelt == metux IT service phone: +49 36207 519931 www: http://www.metux.de/ fax: +49 36207 519932 email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] cellphone: +49 174 7066481 --------------------------------------------------------------------- -- DSL ab 0 Euro. -- statische IP -- UUCP -- Hosting -- Webshops -- ---------------------------------------------------------------------
