general/274: Web Daemon hangs (fwd)

[Dean Gaudet <dg...@arctic.org>]

This be FAQ material.  Which should probably be inserted into the ever
growing list of See Alsos in the VirtualHost documentation.

It'd be nice to know why it's hanging/coredumping in these cases though. 
'cause if we could just give an error we could probably avoid these
reports.

>Description:
We have 3 machines that host around 500 virtual sites (2 class C's).  We have been running apache 1.1.1
on all of the servers for several months.  I have downloaded, configured, and compiled the 1.2b7 source.
When I enter 249 VirtualHosts or less, all works well.  When I enter 250 VirtualHosts, the browser displays
"document contains no data".  When I enter 251 VirtualHosts, the daemon hangs.
>How-To-Repeat:
Enter 251 Virtualhosts in the httpd.conf and see it happen.

Not reall
