Frankly, one of the biggest FAQ's is "how do I tune AOLserver?" IMHO, "ease of configuration" is "less to manually tune" which means settings need to be able to be adjusted at runtime. Seriously, what value does being able to set max connections manually really offer? What people really want is a server that uses resources efficiently but in a way which doesn't run itself out of resources and starve itself. Rarely do I actually hear people say "yes, I really want to limit the number of connections" but rather "I want to allow as many connections as my hardware can handle--how high should I set max connections?" AOLserver is going to become even easier to set up and configure. These are growing pains, unfortunately. -- Dossy -- Dossy Shiobara | [EMAIL PROTECTED] | http://dossy.org/ Panoptic Computer Network | http://panoptic.com/ "He realized the fastest way to change is to laugh at your own folly -- then you can let go and quickly move on."
