Curious ... I checked off every Apache package on the disc ... and can't
find it on the system ... got no error messages during install ... gotta
kick that bucket again and see if it actually installed the thing ...

That's not my problem ... my prob is that it seems like some files are in
/usr/bin, some are in /usr/sbin, some are in /etc/sbin, some are in
/usr/local/bin, some are in /var/www, and yet some are in /etc/httpd ....
that are Apache related...

Some of the folders contain the same, so I assume that some of it is
symlinks to the other ... but I haven't quite figured out the color scheme
in bash yet ... (hey, last I had to deal with Linux was 3-4 years ago, and
that was pure client with KDE with no server services ... no need to fumble
around in the prompt)....

BUT ... I've got about 400 pages I haven't read yet ... but "Linux in a
nutshell" is pretty handy when trying to translate DOS commands into Linux
...

And since half the servers I work with at work are Linux based, I have to
learn this pretty quick ...
