I don't have a suggestion, but I'm very sympathetic. I've always hated
Apache configuration, it seems like a mass of well-hidden options
without a robust gui designed to give web site admins a headache. :-)

I have spent a way too much time in the past week screwing around with
Apache configurations. The final straw was when I took a working
configuration, change the domain name and it failed without telling me
why or where.
so I'm looking for an alternative. What I need is something that has
the following characteristics:
Virtual hosts
virtual hosts server name aliases
404 handler for different URLs (ie. http://www.demo.com/ and
http://www.demo.com/sub/ should be able to have different handlers)
REDIRECT_URL properly set during a 404 events
CGI
directory level access control
works with mailman
there are probably other things that would be nice but I'll probably
find them out when I try to use it.
I have already tried and failed with lighttpd. it fails on the
REDIRECT_URL test as well as rather difficult workarounds for server
name aliases.
so I would welcome suggestions about alternative Web servers that are
reasonably alive.
