Installing httpd by tarball

Here we go.

1. Remember earlier that we installed openssl-0.9.7c. This is resident in addition to the openssl-0.9.7a installed with SUlinux 9. We need to add /usr/local/openssl-9.7.c/lib to ld.so.conf. Then, remember to run ldconfig. (I forgot).
2. You need to configure the makefile using ./configure:

   ./configure --prefix=/usr/local/apache2 --enable-modules=all --enable-mods-shared=all --with-ssl=/usr/local/openssl-0.9.7c --enable-ssl=shared

3. Now do 'make' and it should work. It did for me.
4. Now type 'make install'.
5. Add the line

   /usr/local/apache2/bin/apachectl startssl

   to /etc/rc.d/rc.local.
6. If you don't want to reboot now, but want to check that it worked, type

   /usr/local/apache2/bin/apachectl start
