RHEL3.9 Apache 2.0.46 Hi All: For security reasons it looks like I may need to upgrade the Apache httpd software on one of my production servers. The server in question is currently running RHEL3 Update 9 which includes Apache 2.0.46. I have been asked to disable the HTTP TRACE which appears to be enabled by default. I have located the TraceEnable config parameter but this appears to be only available in 2.0.55+. I have check the Apache site and they have an RPM available for 2.0.59. I am hesitant to upgrade a production sever with other than Red Hat supplied and tested packages for the primary server components. I do not mind doing this for add-ons and utilities but not something as key as the web server software. My questions are: 1. Is this really required or can I disable the HTTP TRACE using another method? 2. Has anyone done this type of upgrade and did you encounter any problems? Any additional comments or suggestions welcome.
