Can somebody please tell me what is DSO? Unix DSO = Dynamic Shared Object, a way to load code into the address space of an (existing) executable program - usually significantly adding functionality to tha application. At <http://www.apache.org/docs/dso.html> there is a paper on the subject. In the context of servlets the relevance of DSO lies in the fact that the JServ module can be installed and configured as an 'adjunct', so to speak, of an Apache 1.3.9 (or higher) installation. (The alternative is to recompile the Apache source code with JServ in it.) FWIW neither I nor colleagues attempting to install Apache JServ have ever managed to successfully complete a DSO JServ installation: it always fails in lines apparently associated with the presence of Perl 5.004 (or higher) on the system, something necessary because of the way Apache uses the apxs module. Each option is fully documented in the INSTALL notes.
