This problem is not just FreeBSD. I am running Linux 2.0.17 and I am getting
the same problem.
here are the parameters of what i am using...
Linux 2.0.17 and Apache 1.1.1. I can run one host and everything works fine.
If I define any IP address as a virtual, the first one in the httpd.conf
works, but all others (including the default non-virtual address) fails with
the above behaviour. And it is only killing the processes, not the server
itself.
If anyone has any ideas on how to fix this, send them to me. I have a client
who is rather upset at this development and i need it working as soon as
possible.
Thanks!
