Apache does have some Solaris boxes that run Zones, but really they aren't for this kind of thing. We've recently set up a mailing list, [EMAIL PROTECTED], which is for discussing changes to Apache's infrastructure. If you want to pursue this on Apache's infrastructure, I'd suggest you go over there to discuss it. Having said that, having a demo to show over there of it running on one of your own boxes would certainly help any discussion. Regards, Upayavira
