Comment 4 Tomas Hoger 2008-01-16 17:16:30 UTC

This issue was specific to httpd version 2.2.4 and did not affect the versions
of httpd as shipped with Red Hat Enterprise Linux 2.1, 3, 4 or 5 and Red Hat
Application Stack v1.

Version of httpd as shipped with Red Hat Application Stack v2 was fixed prior to
its first release.
