Hi,

I have been in this situation before but want to clarify something.

I have a vanilla RH4 install and wanted to check that mod_perl was 
installed. So I did a test on port 80 ala:

telnet localhost 80
Trying 127.0.0.1...
Connected to localhost.localdomain (127.0.0.1).
Escape character is '^]'.
HEAD / HTTP/1.0

HTTP/1.1 403 Forbidden
Date: Wed, 25 Apr 2007 09:55:00 GMT
Server: Apache/2.0.52 (Red Hat)
Accept-Ranges: bytes
Content-Length: 3985
Connection: close
Content-Type: text/html; charset=UTF-8

I was expecting Server: Apache/2.0.52 (Red Hat) mod_perl (some 
version number)

I tried to the package manager to install mod_perl and it offers me 
mod_perl-1.99-16.4

I thought that Apache 2 required MP2. Am I mistaken? I am not sure 
what the best route to take is, even my httpd server version is a bit 
old. Do I throw out the httpd server and start from scratch, possibly 
confusing my package manager? Any thoughts?
