Description:

This package contains the main binary of apache2, a powerful, full-featured,
efficient and freely-available Web server. Apache is also the most popular Web
server on the Internet.

This version of apache2 is fully modular, and many modules are available in
pre-compiled formats, like PHP4 and mod_auth_external.

Check for available Apache2 modules for Mandrakelinux at:
http://nux.se/modules_for_apache2.html
(most of them can be installed from the contribs repository)

Peruser is an Apache 2 module based on metuxmpm, a working implimentation of the
perchild MPM. The fundamental concept behind all of them is to run each apache
child process as its own user and group, each handling its own set of virtual
hosts. Peruser and recent metuxmpm releases can also chroot() apache processes.
The result is a sane and secure web server environment for your users, without
kludges like PHP's safe_mode.
