Just an added thought for you. I always use RCS to manage my config files. I check in the original before editing and then after each edit or change. That way if something or someone alters it I can do a diff and revert back to my copy if I need to. It is really pretty simple and I'm suprised that more admins don't use tools like RCS or CVS in this way. -Darren On Mon, 2003-04-28 at 10:39, Shane C Branch wrote: > I noticed the /etc/httpd/conf/htttpd.conf file for apache includes the > following line: Generated automatically... if you edit manually, the changes > will be lost the next time you run apacheconfig. > > Well, I would prefer to configure the options manually.
