Subject: SSL Handshake time out


Hello, 

I have a server that has been reaching max clients serveral times per day.
When I look at apache-status, 90% of the children are in "Reading Request"
state.  Most of them stay in that state until the apache "Timeout" is
reached. However, some of the children stay reading until I restart http.
Since this causes my server to become unresponsive, I've lowered the Timeout
to 200, which helps somewhat, but we still have the problem.

What's your SSLSeesionCache set to? I can't remember the 7.2 settings (It'll
be in the archives though as I've posted the right one before). The Red Hat
9 setting is:

SSLSessionCache         dbm:/var/cache/mod_ssl/scache

Of course, 7.2 isn't supported by Red Hat any more, but there is a "legacy"
project to keep patches up to date.

Why do so many people who call themselves christians use the name of Jesus
Christ as a swear word?
