 I apologize for wasted time, but I did this last week Friday and I got 5
 seperate processes without trying to access anything via httpd.  I was
 running this on my sparc 5 workstation and I couldn't believe it.  I then
 went to chech the server-status and it still said 5 for the number of
 running processes.  From what I recall, the server (in general speaking) 
 itself shouldn't spawn any processes just for the hell of it.  
 
 In any case, ignore this then until I can give you some "documented"
 proof.  I should've done this last week when I saw it.
 
 Keep up the great work!  I was a big fan of NCSA in the early days and saw
 Apache come out from the woodwork.  I admit I was sure it was just another
 company trying to "fit in".  I was wrong.  Apache has become something
 better than the Netscape servers (minus the configuration menus... which
 are indeed nice. ;)
