Synopsis: Server exiting

State-Changed-From-To: open-closed
State-Changed-By: brian
State-Changed-When: Tue May  5 20:32:40 PDT 1998
State-Changed-Why:
There are cases where it would be a security problem if
the User directive fails to set properly.  The default user
might have privileges that the server admin does not want 
applied to a certain section.  In that case it is safer to
quit than to continue processing.  Since we aren't set up to have a 
"conditional reload" - i.e. don't load a new configuration
if the new one is broken - the only thing we can do is fail
at this point.
