Re: [users@httpd] Apache Binds to all IP addresses with Listen directive

[Duncan Krebs]

Holy cow,

Larry much thanks as that would have taken me a long time to figure out, I'm now convinced that IIS the culprit.

Hi Duncan,

Be careful about making accusations!

Apache is very well behaved and uses only the IP addresses that you tell
it to. IIS is the one who automatically and without notice tries to grab
all IP addresses, even IP's that are not used by any of the websites
it's configured to serve.

To fix the config of IIS,
for IIS5: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/238131/
for IIS6: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/813368/EN-US/

You can also find lots of other explanatory articles by searching for
"disable socket pooling"
