Re: FC3: does Apache-2.0.52 have LFS (large file support) built-in?

Just a note apache does support LFS but you need to compile it yourself with the correct options.
It's not enabled by default because that breaks some modules.  I say change it to LFS by default and let the modules break!

Good question John. I checked all the US Fedora http mirrors listed on
fedora.redhat.com to see what they provided. Only 3 sites provide the
DVD image via http:

1) driven by tux and reports the DVD iso as 2GB (which is wrong)
2) driven by apache-1.3.27 and does not report the size at all
3) driven by ? and reports the right size afaict

I think this answers the question. Hardly anybody is serving files >2GB
via http. Probably because currently Apache can't do it and it has an
enormous market share. Nevertheless I would love to see Apache support
>4GB files.
