I think someone mentioned before that having sample kernel configs for different types of machine (eg ftp, www, news) may be useful, though I forget who suggested this. I agree it may be useful though. Have you read the Apache documentation on tweaking Apache? this doesn't deal with the kernel much, but it may still help. You should be able to find it easily from www.apache.org (If your web server isn't running Apache... why not?) -- Ben Smithurst ben@scientia.demon.co.uk To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
