Hi,

This is controlled by the NumServers value in the apache configration file.

Check this link for detailed documentation

http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.0/

With Regards,

Siva.

Dear Waraitha,

http://httpd.apache.org is the HOME for apache where you can find evry config options and sample configurations tooo.

Infact these httpd precess are diffrent threads serving different clients.

WIth REgrads,

Siva.
