Well for me both interfaces keep responding all the time, only webservers
stop responding.

I have talked to SUN, but they refuse to take this as a bug, they claim it
is Apache thats buggy. Maybe you could ask someone more in the Apache group
to reproduce this. And maybe if one of you people in the Apache group could
notify Sun about this problem since you are probably wellknown to Sun-people
or you have good contact with them. Sun does not listen to what i have to say.

Will do that to.

Thanks.
