removeSelf doesn't seem to work

I'm running a mod_backhand server to redirect connections to 2
mailservers.  It is supposed to removeSelf and does until on of the
backend servers goes down.  Immediately it tries to serve pages from
itself.  Has anyone seen this problem before?


My mod_backhand settings in httpd.conf on the mod_backhand box are:


<IfModule mod_backhand.c>
    UnixSocketDir /usr/local/apache/backhand
    MulticastStats 192.168.0.255:4445,1
    AcceptStats 192.168.0.0/24
</IfModule>


<Directory "/usr/local/apache/www">
    Options Indexes FollowSymLinks MultiViews
    Order allow,deny
    Allow from all
    Backhand removeSelf
    Backhand byAge 6
    Backhand byRandom
    Backhand byLogWindow
    Backhand byLoad
    Backhand HTTPRedirectToName
</Directory>


The mail servers have this in their apache config:

<IfModule mod_backhand.c>
    UnixSocketDir /usr/local/apache/backhand
    MulticastStats 192.168.0.XXX:4445,1
    AcceptStats 192.168.0.0/24
</IfModule>


Where XXX is the ip of the machine running as the mod_backhand server.



Thanks,
