[lug] Apache config

[Justin]

I have always done it by source and compiled support in (ssl, php, 
perl, sql, ldap sometimes). The rpm's never seemed to have everything I 
needed. Plus, when compiling from source I always knew exactly where 
the installation was going and where setup files were, etc. Upgrading 
of course is a different story, in fact I've yet to tackle that with my 
apache anyways. I've had problems with rpm's with other software as 
well, I choose to install from source for most of my major software 
pieces (apache, bind, ssh, postfix, sql, etc).
