First of all, that article is about Apache 1.3 which is vastly different from Apache 2. I suggest that if you plan to use Apache under Cygwin you use 1.3, because it is known to work, whereas people have reported problems getting 2.x running. cyghttpd.dll is included with the apache-1.3 package. Unfortunately, the maintainer failed to include the import library libhttpd.dll.a for this, which is normally required if you want to link with -lhttpd. So, because of this you have to link against the dll directly by adding /usr/bin/cyghttpd.dll to the link path. But again, this is with 1.3. All bets are off for 2.x, you're on your own there. However, the error you reported has nothing to do with a missing DLL or library, it's simply telling you that the script is looking for a mod_dosevasive20.so when it's probably named mod_dosevasive20.dll. If the file is being successfully built you can probably copy it into the apache module dir, add the appropriate config lines to activate it, and see what happens. That is all that apxs really is doing.
