Got it working.  What you have to do is use the 'ksh' (assume that's Korn shell) in 
the TGZ archive mentioned earlier (just rename it to what the script expects, or edit 
the script directly).

Also I found an error in the Install script - it looks for a 'logs' directory to be 
copied into the location where you are installing Apache - if you make one and try 
again, you avoid the error.

It works great, logs fine, etc. but is a bit more system-greedy than good ol' Arexx 
webserver (but that's probably to be expected).  In using Arexx webserver since 
basically last March, I think it uses less than a meg of RAM on the machine (which has 
64 mb RAM), while Apache (also because you start up several server httpd processes by 
default, configurable in httpd.conf file) uses around 6meg RAM on the setup I'm 
building.  But it responds just about as fast as Arexx webserver (which is pretty fast 
due to its simplicity).

Haven't messed around with AWS (amiga web server) yet, probably will sometime but 
Arexx webserver was so easy to use and set up (and while not too complex, works great 
for just serving up pages) now that I finally got Apache to run, I'll likely 
concentrate there (as you can actually get a job running Apache . . . :)

'sh' is your Unix-like shell: you can find it in the 'pdksh' package from
Geek Gadgets. It is also suggested to make 'sh' resident for better
performance.
