Re: Trying to find open connections at apache2

Webserver "connections" are by their very nature short-lived. The web-client makes a request and the server answers this request. This normally takes perhaps a few seconds and then the "connection" disappears.

If you have actived the status-module in your Apache-server, you can see which requests are being serviced and which IPs are linked to these requests.

Apache2::RequestRec::connection gets you the connection record for this request and the Apache2::Connection::get_remote_host gets you the client's IP or host name.

http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.0/mod/mod_status.html This one can be a solution for me but I cant see how to access this information as the Apache2::Status show me things about the Embedded interpreter status, and aparently cannot return the current hosts and requests being processed Some idea? Thanks	[reply]

Apache::VMonitor seems OK too. It is based upon Apache::Scoreboard CountZero "If you have four groups working on a compiler, you'll get a 4-pass compiler." - Conway's Law	[reply]
