Hi, I am thinking of adding the MOD_SYS module in order for me to authenticate users' shell passwords on the web. Some of the subscribers to this mailing list have told me that the Apache source can be found in /usr/ports/www/apache/work, but I don't seem to have the /usr/ports directory in my system. As such I am thinking of de-installing my current Apache 1.3.4, download Apache 1.3.6 from the FreeBSD ports collection on the web and compile it together with the new module I want to include. Do you think this is a good way ? Please advise.
