 Is it the whole of the Server string you want to change or do you just
 want to add your own module name? If it is the later you can make a
 simple little module in C that uses the ap_add_version_component()
 function. If you want to change the whole Server string you'd probably
 have to edit the source files of apache.

yeahthe whole enchilada. thats what we ended up doing. puting it right
in the source and recompiling[sigh]. oh well, even still, mod_perl
rules.

Just yesterday Randal posted a handler here that adds a
X_mod_perl_rules header to every page out of his site.  Perhaps you
could modify that?

the Server outbound header gets overwritten by internal magic - changing it
via api calls appears fruitless...
