We have set mod_gzip for http 1.1. I wonder if the web test sites
are saying get http 1.0?  When I try http/1.0 it says compression
unsupported
and in telnet disconnects me, if I specify 1.1 I get the compressed file
should I change the settings to 1.0. I though most browsers today would
specify
1.1 at least.

thanks
