reproduce schema : 1. place some data on web serwer: dd if=/dev/zero of=file bs=1M count=5 2. generate timeout : to generate timeout i used iptables ( lets assume that 192.168.0.1 i web serwer ip ) : on client site: # iptables -A INPUT -s 192.168.0.1 -p tcp --sport 443 -m limit --limit 10/h --limit-burst 10 -j ACCEPT # iptables -A INPUT -s 192.168.0.1 -p tcp --sport 443 -j DROP # openssl s_client -connect 192.168.0.1:443 -quiet GET /file HTTP/1.0 Host: 192.168.0.1 after timeout we can see in apache error.log : Jan 3 18:08:25 www apache[17209]: [info] [client 192.168.0.1] send body timed out Jan 3 18:08:26 www apache[2754]: [notice] child pid 17209 exit signal Segmentation fault (11) -- System Information: Debian Release: 3.1 Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.4.32 Locale: LANG=C, LC_CTYPE=C (charmap=ANSI_X3.4-1968) Versions of packages libapache-mod-ssl depends on: pn apache | apache-perl Not found. ii libc6 2.3.2.ds1-22 GNU C Library: Shared libraries an ii libdb2 2:2.7.7.0-9 The Berkeley database routines (ru ii libexpat1 1.95.8-3 XML parsing C library - runtime li ii libssl0.9.6 0.9.6m-1sarge1 SSL shared libraries (old version) ii make 3.80-9 The GNU version of the "make" util ii openssl 0.9.7e-3sarge1 Secure Socket Layer (SSL) binary a -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
