Reader ReviewsI bought this book, and I found that Apache did not have the Version decribed in this book available for me to download. This book was good for me only with the basic command just to make a web site up and running, but was not good for me in configuring CGI, access control, and other complicated usages. Apache has updated its version frequently. So, you will have difficulties using instructions from this book with Apache of today versions. Get newer Apache books if you can. I also wish the author writes a new and updated version though.
