For the last two weeks or so, my web server has stopped processing
requests after about 5:30pm or so until about 9:30 or later. I've checked
the logs and thought that the Nimbda virus was bogging my server down,
this was after I increased my MaxServers in http.conf from 10 to 20. Even
then I had 13 httpd processes running.

The weird part is that there will be periods of time when I can access any
of my web sites just fine for about 5 minutes or so before I start getting
"The page Could not be found" errors in IE. Nothing has changed recently
in the configuration, so I tend to lean towards being DOS'ed, either via
Nimbda or...? I'm seeing the attempts in my log, but right at this moment
I'm not seeing any new ones, only have 5 http process's active.. and still
can't access any of my domains via WWW.

Anyone have any ideals?

Rick
