There is no such thing as "directly with Apache!" The Apache Software Foundation (ASF) provides a home for multiple open-source projects, including the HTTPD server. There is no one at ASF who can help you other than to direct you to the project support webpage: http://httpd.apache.org/support.html That page lists all the available support options for HTTPD. You are currently on option 2, "The Apache HTTP Server Users List".
Good luck with whatever other options you plan to pursue. - Y On Mon, May 11, 2015 at 1:48 PM, steve owen <ste...@talktalkbusiness.net> wrote: > Yehuda, > > > > I do sincerely apologies for my lack of known protocol.
