I am going through an upgrade now of my apache web server to 1.3.26 because of a recently announced remote exploit that affects apache on unix servers. What this means is that I have to rebuild my server from scratch from the source like I did the first time. If this is a minor apache upgrade, I would not fear any problems, and "make install" from apache httpd will not overwrite your configuration files, usually. But its always good to make a backup before you do an upgrade. Its always good to make backups period. Things can always go wrong that you have to recover from. There will not be a patch if you are installing from the source. Now, if you are using rpms to do your package management, things may be different for you, but I have little experience in this area. --Josh _________________________________________________________________ Joshua Chamas Chamas Enterprises Inc.
