In general, I like Debian's approach to Apache, but it threw me for a loop at first. My first experience with Apache was installing it from source on HP-UX. Debian's approach is pretty different from that. If you look at /etc/httpd/ you'll discover symlinks for things like logs/ and modules/. This is a direct result of Apache's preference for locating _everything_ under ServerRoot. In other words, /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf is related to normal from source behavior of Apache. -- "XML is like violence: if it doesn't solve your problem, you aren't using enough of it." - Chris Maden -------------------- BYU Unix Users Group http://uug.byu.edu/ The opinions expressed in this message are the responsibility of their author.
