no KDK, you were not incorrect.  in fact, my answer should have included your 
information, and your answer should have included mine (ie, we were both a

down that particular info that apache displays.

ServerTokens specifies the verbosity, while ServerSignature allows it on, or 
eliminates it altogether.
