I think the answer to my question is sort of, but not really. It appears
that httpd can support alternate network transport protocols within
strict limits. The MPMs (at least prefork, worker, and event), all call
ap_setup_listeners() to set various socket options, bind(), and listen()
on all th
I'm revisiting this question (from several months ago), primarily
because I know more now that I did then - though still not enough. :)
There are a couple places in the httpd code that state or imply that
httpd is not restricted to TCP - that other network transport protocols
can be used. In p

I've been looking into the possibility of writing a module to support
using SCTP as an alternative to TCP. After spending some time reading
"The Apache Modules Book" and looking through the code, I have the
impression that the module architecture doesn't support controlling the
types of sockets
