* The Definitive Guide to Apache, Third Edition is a new revision of Peter Wainwright’s best-selling (actually, the highest-selling) book on Apache configuration and administration. * Provides multiple methods and examples of how to solve a particular problem; compares and contrasts the methods rather than recommending a single, "best" solution. * Demonstrates how to use many of the most-popular scripting languages such as PHP, Perl, and Python to create dynamic web sites.
I like the structure of this book, which makes it a little less like an Apache manual. But, at the end of the day, that's what it is: an Apache manual. There's a real need for an experienced web server administrator to write a book with actual advice about what to do, rather than just going over all the things that can be done with the software.
