There is one big huge difference... Modules are DSOs, if you don't enable
them in your httpd.conf, they don't get loaded, they don't get used....
Disabling all of them can be done by "sed 's/^LoadModule/#LoadModule/g'".
If you get a binary distribution... (which, btw, doesn't enable most of
them, it just _ships_ them in the same bundle...)
If you don't get a binary distribution, when I build, I have a lot of tiny
--enable and --disable flags... I can _choose_ what to build, what to
install, what goes on my machine... This doesn't happen with Tomcat and it
SUCKS ASS. :-)
Don't compare yourself to HTTPD, learn from them, that's the only thing you
can do... :-) (suggestion from someone who has been around long enough).
New signature! :-)
