Interestingly, if you compile Apache from the tarball provided on the Apache Project's Web server, and use its "make install", it won't overwrite your data or your existing configuration. It's an artifact of the port. To prevent problems, I'm installing right from the Apache tarball and not using the port. --Brett At 03:14 PM 6/19/2002, Jason DiCioccio wrote: >I would consider this semi-correct, at least from my experience.
