Thanks, I like this approach much better than scattering files
everywhere, but because of my inexperience with linux I wasn't sure
if this would cause any problems down the road. Is it enough to just
modify /etc/rc.d/init.d/httpd to point to /usr/local/apache, or is
more required? Or something else entirely?
