Now why didn't I think of that?  And why didn't Google think of that,
either?

(Of course, I doubt I'll have time to work on this any more before
Friday...)

I don't know why it's so different, but it definitely is, and I can
prove it.  Here's my *entire* httpd.conf file:


# This is here for backwards compatability reasons and to support
#  installing 3rd party modules directly via apxs2, rather than
#  through the /etc/apache2/mods-{available,enabled} mechanism.
#
#LoadModule mod_placeholder /usr/lib/apache2/modules/mod_placeholder.so


It seems that most of the configuration actually takes place in a file
called apache2.conf, and each plug-in has a configuration file of its
own!  Very strange, I'd say.

You should go home.
