Hello --

I am running the Covalent release of apache 1.3.27, which has 0.9.6g of =
OpenSSL.

I am getting the following error in my error_log along with the apache =
service crashing, (The exact same error happen right as the slapper worm =
became prevalent):

[Mon Dec 2 16:18:17 2002] [error] [client 193.2.210.39] client sent =
HTTP/1.1 request without hostname (see RFC2616 section 14.23): /

[Mon Dec 2 16:41:51 2002] [notice] Accept mutex: sysvsem (Default: =
sysvsem)

I thought it was the slapper worm causing the server to crash. I have =
plenty of room on all disk partitions (including the root) and things =
look normal when running an ipcs. Has anyone seen this before or know =
what might be going wrong? This is the first time it has happen after =
upgrading to 1.3.27 with 0.9.6g.

Thanks,
KevinK
