Would the syntax for start/restart/configtest be exactly the same as current apachectl, or would it be changed? (I think it would be changed to use "-k keyword" for apachectl options that don't correspond directly to existing httpd options.) If the syntax changes, then maybe 1) apachectl remains for a while but is deprecated; it shrinks to something that translates between existing apachectl syntax and the new httpd options 2) a new script called apache sets up the environment and calls httpd; its command-line syntax is exactly the same as httpd (oh, Apache isn't just the Apache httpd server? I guess this name isn't so good) 3) httpd is the binary which we don't want anybody to run directly unless they know what they are doing -- Jeff Trawick | [EMAIL PROTECTED] Born in Roswell... married an alien...
