As far as I know, the only two modules that are supported by Apache 2 at this point are mod_php[1] and mod_ruby[2]. You're probably better off using Apache 1.3.X for the next several months (6 or so). 1) mod_php requries a few knobs to build for apache 2. 2) mod_ruby only supports the pre-fork mpm for now. -sc -- Sean Chittenden To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-ports" in the body of the message
