Ive looked on google and didnt find a good explaination as to what these logs are exactly.

any ideas?

Thanks

I assume you've tried killing it and restarting.
httpd stop
ps -aux | grep httpd (make sure all processes are dead)
httpd start

Did you do an upgrade or fresh install before you noticed the log entries?

ok great thanks...If I noticed some that are still running, should I kill them with the following command:

kill <PID>

thanks again

lenny

Kill them off and then restart and check the logs.
Was this a new install or upgrade?

well it's a pretty new install..i just installed fedora about 3 months ago or so...but that command I mentioned before is correct?

service httpd stop
ps aux | grep httpd

Should kill them all

great thanks...i also had another issue im wondering if you are familiar with..

I'm running iptables as a firewall solution im able to enter different rules and after i run:

service iptables save

and it saves, but if I restart the machine all the entries i made are gone and I have to enter them again..

any ideas?

thanks

lenny

Try -

iptables-save > /etc/sysconfig/iptables

will save your current rules to the iptables file that it looks at on startup. Just messing about with iptables myself so a relative newbie to it. /etc/sysconfig has iptables-config and the above iptables file. Have a read at them :)

Good luck :cool:
