Re: [gentoo-user] apache configuration
Hi again, I followed your instructions (concerns both replies) and it works perfectly now. Actually I found everything in the file you mentioned that I was missing in the apache2.conf file like the DirectoryIndex directive. I was quite confused becaus I had allways compiled and installed apache manually and if you do so you have only one major config file httpd.conf to deal with and everything is set there but in the gentoo version everything looks different and even has different names so thanx for the info (this also goes out to the author of the other reply with the same content ).
