42     <code class="directive"><a href="./mod/core.html#servertokens">ServerTokens</a></code> directives
43     control what information about the server will be presented
44     in server-generated documents such as error messages. The
45     <code class="directive"><a href="./mod/core.html#servertokens">ServerTokens</a></code> directive

50     <code class="directive"><a href="./mod/core.html#usecanonicalphysicalport">UseCanonicalPhysicalPort</a></code>
51     directives are used by the server to determine how to construct
52     self-referential URLs. For example, when a client requests a
53     directory, but does not include the trailing slash in the
54     directory name, Apache must redirect the client to the full
55     name including the trailing slash so that the client will
56     correctly resolve relative references in the document.</p>

64     <p>These directives control the locations of the various files
65     that Apache needs for proper operation. When the pathname used
66     does not begin with a slash (/), the files are located relative
67     to the <code class="directive"><a href="./mod/core.html#serverroot">ServerRoot</a></code>. Be careful
68     about locating files in paths which are writable by non-root users.

78     <p>The <code class="directive">LimitRequest</code>*
79     directives are used to place limits on the amount of resources
80     Apache will use in reading requests from clients. By limiting
81     these values, some kinds of denial of service attacks can be
82     mitigated.</p>
83
84     <p>The <code class="directive">RLimit</code>* directives
85     are used to limit the amount of resources which can be used by
86     processes forked off from the Apache children. In particular,
87     this will control resources used by CGI scripts and SSI exec
88     commands.</p>

90     <p>The <code class="directive"><a href="./mod/mpm_common.html#threadstacksize">ThreadStackSize</a></code>
91     directive is used with some platforms to control the stack size.</p>
