<p>The Apache HTTP Server is a modular program where the
administrator can choose the functionality to include in the
server by selecting a set of modules. The modules can be

Dynamic Shared Objects (DSOs) that exist separately from the

here is a short and concise summary:</p>

Build and install a <em>third-party</em> Apache module, say

the actual server process can be assembled at run-time via

<code>httpd.conf</code> configuration commands instead of
