under the Apache Software Foundation umbrella. Enter the httpd directory. This will
take you to the page that includes links to the most recent Apache releases and various
related projects and utilities. The distribution is available in two formats:
Source: If your target server platform is Linux, consider downloading the source
code. Although there is certainly nothing wrong with using one of the convenient
binary versions, the extra time invested in learning how to compile from source
will provide you with greater configuration flexibility. If your target platform is
Windows and you??™d like to compile from source, a separate source package
intended for the Win32 platform is available for download. However, note that
this chapter does not discuss the Win32 source installation process. Instead, this
chapter focuses on the much more commonplace (and recommended) binary
installer.
Binary: Binaries are available for a number of operating systems, among them
Microsoft Windows, Sun Solaris, and OS/2. You??™ll find these binaries under the
binaries directory.
