How to configure Apache Web Server On Soalris?
I have installed Apache Webserver 1.3.x on Solaris 8.0.How to configure it now ?

i would suggest that you browse the contents of the file httpd.conf. Through out the file there are many comments describing it functionality and how-to adjust it. trial and error.
:-)

yeah there is.
It's just that the default apache install on solaris SUCKS!!!
do this,
go to apache.org and download the latest (1.3.20).
Then do a pkgrm (package remove) of all APACHE stuff.
pkginfo | grep Apache
should be three packages DOCS,SERVER,USER.
Make sure you've got gcc installed and follow the directions to get apache installed into /usr/local/apache. It's a breeze and it WILL work - better than their crappy install.
all config info will be in /usr/local/apache/conf/httpd.conf
put a link in rc3.d called S99apache to /usr/local/apache/bin/apachectl like:
ln -s /usr/local/apache/bin/apachectl /etc/rc3.d/S99apache
when you reboot or /etc/rc3.d/S99apache start it'll work.
