Tutorials
Last modified:
I've written a number of tutorial articles for
LinuxPlanet.Com and
ApacheToday.Com, as well
as other online sites. Below is a list of those articles.
Other stuff I have written, primarily in the form of presentations,
can be found on my presentation page.
- The Apache Web Server Documentation Project
This tutorial describes what the documentation project is (basically,
a bunch of people working on improving the manual for the Web
server), how to find out more, and how you can help.
This information is valid for both Windows and Unix, although
there is a decided Unix slant on the commands shown.
- Using
.htaccess Files with Apache
This tutorial gives an overview of what .htaccess
files are, how to create and edit them, how to enable
and disable them, what directives can be
used in them, how to use them in general, and presents their
advantages and disadvantages. This
information is valid for both Windows and Unix.
- Getting Started with Apache 1.3
A primer for the novice who has never run Apache, this gives a
brief treatment of how to download it and get it running. This
information is valid for both Windows and Unix.
- Adding PHP to Apache on Linux
Even though it's quite Linux-oriented, it's useful and largely
applicable for other Unix platforms as well. Not for Windows,
though, alas.
- Using Apache with
suexec on Linux
The same caveat applies here; good stuff for other Unix platforms,
but nothing for Windows..
- Using the Apache CVS Repository
How to keep up with the very latest day-by-day Apache developments.
This information is valid for both Unix and Windows, though
you'll need compilation tools to make use of it on the latter.
- Securing Your Web Pages with Apache
An introduction to controlling access to your Web pages using
Apache's built-in security modules. This information is valid for
both Windows and Unix.
- Preventing Image 'Theft'
How to place limits on your image files so they can only be seen
in the context of your own pages. This information is valid for
both Windows and Unix.
