What if you have a server farm of 8 AOL servers, and 12 perl clients, and
3 MS Access connections, leaving things open? Is AOLserver parsing the
Perl DBD/DBI, connects, too? So you're using AOLserver as (cough) a
middleman? <g>

How does AOL server time out access clients, ODBC connections, Perl
clients? I thought it was mainly web-server stuff.
Apache/PHP isn't the only problem. The problem isn't solved by
telling others to fix their software, either... is this something
that can be done _within_ postmaster?
