A while back I realized the futility of using a single httpd.conf after having many errors due to not repeating things correctly in SSL section and the long length of the file. I broke it up into a httpd.conf, mod_gzip.conf, a global SSL.conf and a conf file (and SSL version if needed) for each virtual host. Right now that is a total of 13 conf files. I like being able to diff the two versions for each virtual host to look for errors.
Right now I am using Apache::AuthCookie to protect a variety of locations, but that is making things complicated again. At this point, should I break the AuthCookie sections out into confs for each virtual host using it, learn to use Perl Sections, or something different? Any suggestions are welcome.
