I don't know what might have come with whatever you downloaded from FreeBSD -- the port? the package? I just get the complete distribution directly from apache and compile it myself. It's all available from: http://www.apache.org Just a couple of days ago, I picked up the latest stuff: http://www.apache.org/dist/apache_1.3b3.tar.gz http://www.apache.org/dist/patches/apply_to_1.3b3/no2slash-loop-fix.patch The documentation is included in the distribution, and it is also available online at the above site. The manual has sections on configuring and installing. I had to make no FreeBSD-specific changes to it -- it compiled and installs without fuss -- although I use GNU make, so I'm not sure if you can use BSD make successfully -- you can install GNU make from the package collection. You also need to tweek src/Configuration for whatever options you want. Dave Bodenstab imdave@mcs.net
