Eric, Yes, I went from 2.4.6 bundled with Red Hat to a plain source code build. It didn't occur to me that it might be that simple. Thanks! :o Mgmt has decided that they want the ability to easily have multiple versions of Apache on our servers and to be able to switch from one build to another by having symbolic links that are generic that point to the active directory. Somewhat like the way Java does. I just added a couple of lines of shell script following the links command after the 'status' command line switch. It checks for the number of httpd processes, and if there are none, it echoes "It's DEAD, Jim!". Otherwise It echoes "It's ALIVE!!!". That seems pretty clear.

The former probably just customized apachectl. -- Eric Covener covener@xxxxxxxxx --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscribe@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx For additional commands, e-mail: users-help@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscribe@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx For additional commands, e-mail: users-help@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
