Hi everyone,

Just installed apache 1.3.26 on my FreeBSD 4.6 server with Frontpage etc... and when I start up the server, the following are the processes which is normal or what?

# /usr/local/apache/bin/apachectl start
/usr/local/apache/bin/apachectl start: httpd started
# ps auwx | grep httpd
root 2427 0.0 1.1 9372 5544 ?? Ss 1:59AM 0:00.03 /usr/local/apache/bin/httpd
www 2433 0.0 1.1 9372 5572 ?? S 1:59AM 0:00.00 /usr/local/apache/bin/httpd
www 2434 0.0 1.1 9372 5572 ?? S 1:59AM 0:00.00 /usr/local/apache/bin/httpd
www 2435 0.0 1.1 9372 5572 ?? S 1:59AM 0:00.00 /usr/local/apache/bin/httpd
www 2436 0.0 1.1 9372 5572 ?? S 1:59AM 0:00.00 /usr/local/apache/bin/httpd
www 2437 0.0 1.1 9372 5572 ?? S 1:59AM 0:00.00 /usr/local/apache/bin/httpd

Thanks for enlighting me on this :)

Kindest regards,

Yes this is normal, you control how many servers to start initially in httpd.conf.

You have 5, which is default i belive.
