Does the netstat -na output still show the port(s) listening? Can it be accessed via telnet? If the service is not actively listening, then you can start with Apache's listener, rather than any of the page serving functions.
The first issue is to verify that the server is still seeing the HTTP traffic, regardless of Apache's state. If that's the case, and the traffic is still coming in, then you will likely need to truss the process while generating some traffic, and see if you can identify why Apache is not responding. The Apache mailing lists will likely be your best source for assistance in that matter, should you be unfamiliar with parsing a truss. It may also eat up a bunch of disk space to write that all out to disk, so be warned. -Ben Pitzer On 12/26/06, Nick <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:
