Well, yeah, sure, but the http server was the first, and is the most well known project to come from the ASF. It has *always* been referred to as 'apache' when talking about "the web server I run on my linux box" by Joe Linux-user. There is nothing from the ASF that is as well known. It's also the *only* ASF project to not actually have a name, a al tomcat, jackrabbit, etc.
When dealing with software which handles HTTP in any way, generally, we call it Apache Web Server, specificall to differentiate Apache Tomcat.
Well, this is clearly user error and said user ought to be beaten with a clue-stick until they attain the level of pedantry required to effectively communicate with those of our nature ;)
Not really. Apache can handle Tomcat and anything else within the same instance. I can run it separately, or together. Actually, I suppose in a way your right. From a lower level standpoint, the Apache httpd is using a module to communicate with the Tomcat Application server, but it's a blurry line, because of the way the Apache module works. -- -- Thomas _______________________________________________ gnhlug-discuss mailing list gnhlug-discuss@mail.gnhlug.org http://mail.gnhlug.org/mailman/listinfo/gnhlug-discuss/
