I really don't know why and I'd appreciate any help on this area. Anyways, stuff is still available on ftp, and this is not serving garbage. If somebody got time, please test this on current DFly: - cd /usr/ports/www/apache2 && make install - serve large files from apache2 and tell me whether you are getting garbage in the files or not. I don't know if this is a kernel issue or apache2 or a combination. cheers simon ps: Apologies to all people who wasted time when fetching the garbage. -- /"\ http://corecode.ath.cx/#donate \ / \ ASCII Ribbon Campaign / \ Against HTML Mail and News
