You might also want to be aware of the apache documentation which is
usually installed with apache. I have it installed on Linux and BSD
boxes and SSI's are listed on the front page. Start your server up and
try this link : http://localhost/manual/howto/ssi.html which you might
find looks remarkably similar to
http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.0/howto/ssi.html
Just for what it's worth (which probably isn't very much) I don't
believe in this 'thou shalt not edit the config files' vein of thought
at all. Apache 2.0 has heavily reorganised the config files but I
personally feel very very free to edit what the hell I want to on my own
non-production machines and I'll recompile the whole lot if I feel like
it too tyvm :).
I tried Ubuntu early on, it's nice enough but I port scanned the box and
found an open port < 1024. Posted somewhere on an ubuntu list and they
said 'they needed this port open for things they had to do'. Not the
exact words but that was the essence of the reply. They were no more
specific than that so ... with one root controlled port open and one
root account they'd attempted to make inaccessible (but easily got
round), against a load of distros that don't do that, I decided not to
pursue Ubuntu any further.
Anyway HTH.
