OTOH, this doesn't work for static builds of mod_ssl.c, since the user can't unload modules from Apache 2.0 and re-add in the same way as 1.3 did. So we may wish to provide a mechansm for them to cripple ssl convenienly. From: "Ryan Bloom" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Wednesday, October 31, 2001 10:27 AM > Why would we want to remove -DSSL? It makes sense to me to force people > to enable SSL specially. I was under the impression we had decided so. I guess I'm mistaken, and on this entire issue, I'm agnostic. We have a means in Apache 2.0 to change the startup args, so to enable ssl, simply; apache -k config -n ApacheSSL -D SSL -d d:\serverroot -f conf\httpd.conf Really simple, actually. Bill
