Hi,

Apache is really strange. Just upgraded to 2.2.6 (that works very well
with last grsec/pax patch ;)).
But I see a very strange thing :

> # paxctl -v /usr/sbin/apache2
> PaX control v0.5
> Copyright 2004,2005,2006,2007 PaX Team <pageexec@...>
> 
> file /usr/sbin/apache2 is not a valid ELF executable (invalid PT_ entry:8)

Even with this "error", apache-2.2.6 works very well, but...
what exactly does it means ? Really a problem with apache-2.2.6 ?
or something that disturbs paxctl ?

chpax does not shows this error (but chpax is marked as obsolete...)
and readelf or objdump does not reports any error :
> # readelf -h /usr/sbin/apache2

Any idea ?
