    I doubt it. IFIRC the Apache that comes with Red Hat 8.0 doesn't. I built it 
    from source.

    No mod_perl?

Forgive my "newbiness" regarding this matter, but how would a person
tell if mod_perl was enabled with httpd?  I searched for perl in the
httpd.conf and found:

LoadModule perl_module        modules/libperl.so
AddModule mod_perl.c
    # avoid the ambiguity with the common suffix for perl scripts.
    # which has a broken HTTP/1.1 implementation and does not properly
# If the perl module is installed, this will allow execution of mod_perl
#<IfModule mod_perl.c>
#    Alias /perl /var/www/perl
#    <Directory /var/www/perl>
#        SetHandler perl-script

Does the existence of the LoadModule and AddModule above indicate that
mod_perl is enabled?

Thanks.
