A kind list member replied to me directly and reminded me that the above directive is totally unnecessary in my case. A simple 'Listen 127.0.0.1:8103' would achieve the same affect since 127.0.0.1 is only accessible from the local machine. I'm reposting to the list in case someone searches the archives. The originally reported behavior is still an unexplained gotcha. I'm glad I found an easy workaround that works. Thanks for listening. -- Haroon Rafique <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
