Thanks for the info Bill. So I can use the mod_jk-apache-2.0.55.so from http://www.apache.org/dist/tomcat/tomcat-connectors/jk/binaries/win32/jk -1.2.15/ with the Apache install that I mentioned below? The only mod_jk.dll I've found is mod_jk_1.2.6_2.0.50.dll located at: http://www.apache.org/dist/tomcat/tomcat-connectors/jk/binaries/win32/jk -1.2.6/. I would have to use Apache HTTP Server 1.3.x to use this however because it says that you need at least jk-1.2.10 or higher to use the Apache HTTP Server 2.0.x version.

They are ALL dynamic libraries, the filename is irrelevant. It only helps you to distinguish one type of module from another. So .so is a perfectly logical associate for apache modules. Apache can only load an 'apache module' - e.g. a module with an exported FOO_module data structure in the correct format. (You can LoadFile any loadable module, but it won't necessarily do anything unless another module knows to bind to it.) HTTP Server project adopted the same naming conventions as much as possible (even Apache 2.2's binary is named httpd.exe - we couldn't lose the .exe of course.) This makes it much easier to follow the examples and documentation. The HTTP Server project has no say in how the authors in the Tomcat project (mod_jk.so), the PHP project (php4apache2.dll) and so on choose to name their modules.
