Michelle,
Compiling modules for Apache on RaQ's is no different than compiling
modules for a regular apache. If you are needing modules that aren't
there, what I do is obtain apache source code of the same version that
is on you machine, and compile what ever modules are needed. You should
be able to do this without the entire source code, with just the source
code from the needed modules and use the apxs utility to compile shared
objects/modules for apache. Here is a few links
http://httpd.apache.org/docs/programs/apxs.html
http://httpd.apache.org/docs/dso.html
The needed .h files should be in /usr/include/apache
I have not tried this on a Raq. I usually obtain the entire source, and
compile and entire apache so I can test the modules against the proper
version. Then if it works I upload and replace/add the module to the RaQ.
For anyone who needs them, I keep a variety of compiled modules on our
FTP server for public use. I have heard some complaints about the
modules not being complied with EAPI, but they should be.

As for ChiliSoft ASP, version 3.5.X was supposed to only support up to
Apache 1.3.14 and I have it working perfectly with versions up to Apache
1.3.20. As for ChiliSoft ASP 3.6, I would imagine worse case you will
have to compile your own module for Apache 1.3.20. I cannot see it not
working at all, unless there are other differences other that what they
say there are.
