Homework Assignment #2 (Apache)

Your second homework assignment will have you install Apache to your Silo directory, configure the installation, and set up a very basic web page. Details soon!

1. Obtain the Apache distribution from where I put it (/l/www/classes/a202-ewennstr/software/httpd-2.2.27.tar.gz) and copy it to your user directory.
2. Unzip and unarchive the file.
3. Configure the source code to use your directory.
4. Compile and install Apache.
5. Configure the installation to use your assigned port number (see here) and your username.
6. Start the Apache server and leave it running (so that I can access your work).
7. Create a simple web page. The content can be whatever you want (within reason), but it needs to have a head section with a title and a body section with some sort of text in it.
8. When you have completed the assignment, send me an e-mail (ewennstr@indiana.edu) with the link to your created web page so I that I can check that it was done correctly and on time.
