X-LIGHTTPD-send-tempfile should not be the default behaviour as;
- lighttpd removes the file after sending it
- it only works with lighttpd 1.5.x, which is still in development
We're using sendfile to deliver some protected files outside
the web server root, and deleting is most definitely not an
expected or sane default ;-).
Thx,
