I'm finding the CERN httpd 3.0 under Linux is eventually
hanging (ie. the parent httpd is still there, but it doesn't
answer requests) after a day's or so pounding. A kill -HUP 
seems to fix it. When this occurs, there are a number of
zombie httpds present.

Short of putting kill -HUP in cron :), is this a known
problem with a fix?

Setup is Red Hat 2.0 (ELF), Linux 1.2.13, Pentium-100,
32MB RAM, Debian version of CERN httpd.


regards,


luke.
