http://httpd.apache.org/docs/mod/mod_include.html

i know about that site, i have looked, but it doesn't make alot of sense to me, thanks though for the help, would you be able to help me out a little more. anyone?

You can use the apxs command to compile and install modules, "man apxs" for more info. Something like: $ apxs -c mod_include.c Then copy it to the apache libexec directory (possibly /usr/libexec/apache/) and edit the apache config file (httpd.conf) although there will probably already be an entry for mod_include (AddModule mod_include.c). Restart apache and you should be away....

thanks dave but this is the error i get when doing it /usr/lib/httpd/build/libtool --silent --mode=compile gcc -prefer-pic -O2 -g -pipe -march=i386 -mcpu=i686 -I/usr/kerberos/include -DAP_HAVE_DESIGNATED_INITIALIZER -DLINUX=2 -D_REENTRANT -D_XOPEN_SOURCE=500 -D_BSD_SOURCE -D_SVID_SOURCE -D_GNU_SOURCE -pthread -DNO_DBM_REWRITEMAP -I/usr/include/httpd -c -o mod_include.lo mod_include.c && touch mod_include.slo gcc: mod_include.c: No such file or directory gcc: no input files apxs:Error: Command failed with rc=65536 any help would be very usefull

Did you actually download the file mod_include.c first? make sure that you are in the same directory as the file and try the command again. I found it a couple of times via google: http://minimal.cx/mod_include.c or http://www.apache.jp/viewcvs.cgi/*checkout*/apache-1.2/src/mod_include.c?rev=HEAD&content-type=text/plain

hey Cdave, i feel pretty dumb, but i see the files, they are txt, versions. i can copy and paste them if thats what u want me to do, what should i named it, and what kind of persioons does it need?
