Pages

Hi Apachenarians!
Can you tell me the very minimum of all that nodules I need to serv only static html files? How can I improve apache performance? Any recommend settings?

Modules:

Technically, not a single one, but you will not like what you see.

mod_mime: To get an html page to look as it should and not be served as a text file

mod_authz_host: will give you the most basic ability for some access control. It allows the use of Order, Allow and Deny.

mod_dir: If you do not want your users to have to speciify index.html on the address bar this one helps. This also provides for DirectoryIndex directive.

Anything else is up to you. You might have a look at
http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.2/mod/

I'll let Mario or Mika answer the performance tuning one since I tend to throw more computer at Apache than to mess with squeezing every extra bit I can out of it. I'd actually like to see this myself!
