does the apache adaptor have a hard coded limit on number of apps?

[chad+webobjects at objectwerks.com (Chad Leigh)]

OK, still having the problem

I compiled a fresh apache and a fresh Project Wonder wo adaptor or  
apache.  The apache is definitely using this new adaptor and still have  
the 16 app limit  (15 plus monitor).  Are there any reliable work  
arounds to this besides a second apache and redirecting to a different  
port on it?

Thanks
Chad
