  Book Information

There's plenty of documentation on installing and
configuring the Apache web server, but where do you find
help for the day-to-day stuff, like adding common modules or
fine-tuning your activity logging? That's easy. The new
edition of the Apache Cookbook offers you updated solutions
to the problems you're likely to encounter with the new
versions of Apache.

Written by members of the Apache Software Foundation, and
thoroughly revised for Apache versions 2.0 and 2.2, recipes
in this book range from simple tasks, such installing the
server on Red Hat Linux or Windows, to more complex tasks,
such as setting up name-based virtual hosts or securing and
managing your proxy server. Altogether, you get more than
200 timesaving recipes for solving a crisis or other
deadline conundrums, with topics including:

Security
Aliases, Redirecting, and Rewriting
CGI Scripts, the suexec Wrapper, and other dynamic content
techniques
Error Handling
SSL
Performance

This book tackles everything from beginner problems to those
faced by experienced users. For every problem addressed in
the book, you will find a worked-out solution that includes
short, focused pieces of code you can use immediately. You
also get explanations of how and why the code works, so you
can adapt the problem-solving techniques to similar
situations.

Instead of poking around mailing lists, online
documentation, and other sources, rely on the Apache
Cookbook for quick solutions when you need them. Then you
can spend your time and energy where it matters most.
