46.8. For More Information

Apache is a widely used Web server. As a consequence, there are many Web sites offering support and help for it in different levels of quality. In any case, the starting point for any research about Apache and its possibilities should be http://httpd.apache.org/docs-2.0/.

Additionally, the RPM package apache2-doc contains the Apache manual for local installation and reference. For some SUSE-specific configuration hints, the file /usr/share/doc/packages/apache2 contains a quick reference.

The RPM package apache2-example-pages holds some example pages for Apache that show information about the Web server.
