1N/A
1N/AThis module is contained in the <code>mod_info.c</code> file. It
1N/Aprovides a comprehensive overview of the server configuration
1N/Aincluding all installed modules and directives in the configuration
1N/Afiles. This module is not compiled into the
1N/Aserver by default. It is only available in Apache 1.1 and later. To
1N/Aenable it, add the following line to the server build Configuration
1N/Afile, and rebuild the server:
1N/A
1N/A<PRE>
1N/AModule info_module mod_info.o
1N/A</PRE>
1N/A
1N/A<HR>
1N/A<P>
1N/ATo configure it, add the following to your <code>access.conf</code> file.
1N/A
1N/A<PRE>
1N/A&lt;Location /server-info&gt;
1N/ASetHandler server-info
1N/A&lt;/Location&gt;
1N/A</PRE>
1N/A
1N/AYou may wish to add a
1N/A<A
1N/A HREF="core.html#limit"
1N/A>&lt;Limit&gt;</A>
1N/Aclause inside the
1N/A<A
1N/A HREF="core.html#location"
1N/A>location</A>
1N/Adirective to limit access to your server configuration information.<p>
1N/AOnce configured, the server information is obtained by accessing
1N/A<tt>http://your.host.dom/server-info</tt><p>
<BLOCKQUOTE>
<STRONG>
Note that the configuration files are read by the module at run-time,
and therefore the display may <EM>not</EM> reflect the running
server's active configuration if the files have been changed since the
server was last reloaded. Also, the configuration files must be
readable by the user as which the server is running (see the
<A
HREF="core.html#user"
><SAMP>User</SAMP></A>
directive), or else the directive settings will not be listed.
<P>
It should also be noted that if <SAMP>mod_info</SAMP> is compiled into
the server, its handler capability is available in <EM>all</EM>
configuration files, including <EM>per</EM>-directory files
(<EM>e.g.</EM>, <SAMP>.htaccess</SAMP>). This may have
security-related ramifications for your site.
