If unknown, it isn't a showstopper. - - Jim: My concern is that previous versions of Apache were not db2 - "aware" best as I can determine. Thus, Apache would use db1 - by default with mod_auth_db.c. Now that Apache "knows" about - db2, it looks like it prefers that over db1, which means that - this will break "old" db databases unless db2 can read db1 files. - I simply don't know if it will, but if it doesn't then this - looks like a compatibility problem. - * need to ensure it compiles properly on win32 before rolling the tarball, and that no last minute changes break it
