I have one webserver dedicated for a client communication running apache
1.3.22-6 on linux red hat 7.3 and almost unused. Today the machine had no
memory or swap left (1 gig memory,512 meg swap). Analyzing the error logs I
found this:

Are you up to specs on the errata packages?

Few minutes before in error log:
[Sat Oct 12 20:16:19 2002] [error] [client 217.223.216.186] client sent
HTTP/1.1 request without hostname (see RFC2616 section 14.23): /

MOD_SSL attempt. see also: http://rhn.redhat.com/errata/RHSA-2002-134.html

I suggest you bring the machine up-to-date immediatly
