Apache Module Collection
  ========================

  This is a collection of third-party modules contributed to the Apache HTTP
  server project (http://www.apache.org/).  It's a compilation of modules
  together with a Makefile hierarchy to easily install these modules into an
  existing Apache 1.3 HTTP server installation through Apache's new APXS
  mechanism. Some older modules were slightly adjusted for Apache 1.3.

  Installation
  ------------

  1. Make sure you already have an Apache 1.3.x webserver installed 
     on your system with DSO support enabled. If you're still not sure 
     about this you can verify it by running

     $ httpd -l

     and watching for "mod_so.c". If it's there, you have DSO support.  If not
     you have to at least re-build your httpd binary with the APACI option
     --enable-module=so or by enabling the AddModule command for mod_so
     manually. See Apache's INSTALL file for more details.

  2. Build and install the modules:

     $ make all install [APXS=/path/to/bin/apxs]

     When Apache's `apxs' command is not in your PATH, please
     specify it above with the APXS variable.

  3. Bask in the glow. 
     You now have a few more Apache modules available for playing....
