We seem to have a problem when someone downloads a file from a web page on
our system. What happens is that they get to a certain point in the file
and then it cuts out, so they never get the whole file. This only seems to
happen to larger files. I thought we had a similar problem in the past on
our old server and believe we had to do something with the web server, but
I can't put my finger on it.

We're currently running BSDI 2.1 with the Apache Web Server that came
installed with it.

Any suggestions?

TIA,
