I appreciate that you are a beginner with Apache, and do not want to discourage you. But, really, in the long term you would do yourself a big favor by first getting some basic knowledge about HTTP and what things like POST etc.. mean, before attempting things left and right. The thing is, that without this basic knowledge, you are not going to understand the results you are getting, and you are going to spend a lot of time, of yourself even more as of others, fruitlessly.
Let me give you a first tip :The POST command that you are using is in fact an alias, for a very nice and powerful perl script called "lwp-request". There is another alias called GET, for the same program. If you enter "perldoc lwp-request", you will get a display of the perl documentation of that program.
It will tell you, among other things, that GET is an alias for "lwp-request -m GET" and that POST is an alias for "lwp-request -m POST".lwp-request is a perl script that is very useful, as it allows you to "compose" various kinds of HTTP requests and send them to a webserver, and to visualise the response that the webserver is sending back.
Try for instance "GET http://www.google.com"Then try that same command, but with some of the command switches that are available, such as
GET -USed http://www.google.com Then try GET -USed http://norealserver.local and so on. To see the available switches, just enter "lwp-request" at the command-line.Do not forget this program. When you will encounter problems later with some web applications or webservers, it is a very useful debugging tool.
