No. Your performance will be increased using a so called proxy-setup: - - Make your frontend server as light weight as possible (don't load php and mod-perl) - - Use mod-rewrite to forward requests to dynamic pages to your mod-perl enabled server in the back running on port 81 or even you want to on another IP-adress - From the client-side it looks like you are only running one apache. There's enough information in the docs and mail-archives else get one of the great mod-perl books. Tom >> > Thanks so much for everyones help.
