That's exactly what it means. Apache on Unix is non-threaded. > Actually, I was asking the low-level information, I > mean something like web server receives the request, > hands this over to mod_php, that requests a thread > from the worker threads, so on so forth... Well, since there are no threads involved here there is no pool of worker threads or anything like that. You simply have a process that grabs a requests, branches off to mod_php/mod_perl and sends the result back. -Rasmus
