deliver hanging

2001-09-19 Thread Pete Naylor

master altconfig patch

2001-09-19 Thread Greg Hewett
All, I found it necessary to have multiple master process running on the same server, so I patched 2.0.16 to accept the -C option. I tried to stay consistant with the way that the other alternate config was done in the other applications. I probably do not need to send the patch because it is s
