Yes. I don't know of anyone successfully using perchild. There is another group working on a successor called something like mpmmux, but they've been rather quite too. > Can perchild support the idea of becoming a user specified via an auth > module using something like basic authentication? Not with its current design. For one thing, it needs to have a pool of child threads available for each possible user, which would make it rather inappropriate for a large number of users. For another thing, it currently only supports different users on a per-vhost basis. But I suppose that last restriction would be easy enough to relax. Joshua.
