I don't know why you've obfuscated the URL in question, as that URL would allow people to test the situation and (possible) give you the exact reason for the problem. If you have some legit reason for not telling this list the URL, you're going to have to provide a LOT of information, as well as tcpdumps of sessions, etc... I can tell you one thing ... it's not possible for your web server to cause anyone's computer to reboot. If this is really happening, then the coputer that's rebooting is so broken that it would be pretty silly to blame the problem on your web site. -- Bill Moran Potential Technologies http://www.potentialtech.com To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
