That would depend on your packager, who probably provides their own system configuration tools. Check their docs, and http://wiki.apache.org/httpd/Info/DistrosDefaultLayout If you were doing it from apache's own bundle, it would depend on your build options. With default options you'd have a whole lot of modules (.so files) already there (though not all activated), so I infer that's not what you have. -- Nick Kew Available for work, contract or permanent http://www.webthing.com/~nick/cv.html --------------------------------------------------------------------- The official User-To-User support forum of the Apache HTTP Server Project.
