I compiled in SMP support with kernel 2.0.18. I compile Apache with Proxy module support... the Linux system works fine until i run httpd. the httpd daemon runs but soon as i access the web page on that system, the whole system hangs!? the only way i get Apache to work is to use a non-SMP kernel. I have tried CERN proxy server on the same system with the SMP kernel and it works flawlessly!? i beat the crap out of it and it never crashes. Does anyone have Apache working in this configuration? or am i missing some kernel option? or is this even supported?

Upgrade to 2.0.27 or 2.0.29 and your apache will be totally happy. Oddly apache was about the only thing it showed up in.
