=== Notes: ===
 1. ''Debian/Ubuntu use symlinks to enable vhosts and modules. Configuration 
files are created in their respective sites-available and mods-available 
directories. To activate vhosts and modules, symlinks are created in the 
respective sites-enabled and mods-enabled directories to the config files in 
either sites-available and mods-available. Debian provides scripts to handle 
this process called 'a2ensite' and 'a2enmod' which enables vhosts and modules.''
 1. ''The default DocumentRoot is specified in the default vhost config file, 
/etc/apache2/sites-available/default''

=== Notes: ===
 1. ''There is an extra config file in /etc/sysconfig/httpd which can be used 
to change to the worker mpm /usr/sbin/httpd.worker.''
 1. ''Extra config files named *.conf are loaded from /etc/httpd/conf.d. This 
directory is used by packages like mod_python for drop-in configs''
 1. ''If you're having issues with authorization and your permissions are 
correct make sure that you try testing with SELinux turned off. Run 'setenforce 
0' and use 'chcon' to fix permissions. Run 'ls -alZ' to view the current 
permissions.' SELinux first manifested itself in Fedora Core 3, RHEL 4, and 
CentOS 4.''
