Yes, true. I thought it would be polite to allways ship the vanilla 
httpd2.conf file, that's included in the apache2 stuff. One way of doing it 
would be to use a simple no-brainer httpd2.conf file for these people. Maybe 
one could chose what level apache should be configured this way?

I wish that too. But..., someone really needs to dwell into the 3rd party 
modules mess and see which ones will work.

Building apache2-2.0.40-20020731 right now... (done...) It should be out on 
the mirrors soon. Ehh, this one I can't test myself right now..., could you 
test it please? And, thanks for the appreciation.
