I only installed apache because Feed-onFeeds requires a web server. Similarly, to muck around with ruby-on-rails requires a web server (it ships with one). If it weren't for the requirements of those two items, I wouldn't have a web server installed. I'm not trying to set up a web server for other persons to visit. I want to use some stuff which requires a web server. In and of itself, I have no interest in a web server of any variety.

Heh, was just explaining that I plan some fairly major system changes (moving windows, too) so I probably wouldn't put too much into apache until that's done (have to backup some data too). thanks, Thufir --------------------------------------------------------------------- The official User-To-User support forum of the Apache HTTP Server Project.
