I was wondering if you can point me to documentation about the "profiles" feature of apache. I've looked around the docs at http://httpd.apache.org, put Google to work for me, and asked on a couple of lists, but it appears this is kind of a secret feature, and maybe unique to the FreeBSD port. I've figured out enough to see that adding apache22_profiles="profile1 profile2" to /etc/rc.conf will start the process, and I suppose I could brute-force my way through figuring out how it should work, but I hoped you could point me to some kind of documentation on the feature, perhaps with some examples of how it was intended to be used. Specifically, I'm thinking this feature may make it easier for me to run two copies of apache: one hosting Bugzilla sites, another with WebDAV enabled for Subversion, using different users with mutually exclusive permissions. (The O'Reilly "Apache Cookbook" suggests running separate instances is a really good idea with DAV involved.) Thanks for any pointers you can give me. -- Bruce Wilson PGP KeyID: 5430B995, http://www.toomuchblue.com/ “There are two ways to write error-free programs. Unfortunately, only the third one works.”
