199 fast CGI module).

201
202 <para>
203 <parameter>--enable-mods-shared="all cgi"</parameter>: The modules should be
204 compiled and used as Dynamic Shared Objects (DSOs) so they can be included
205 and excluded from the server using the run-time configuration directives.
206 </para>
207
208 <para>
209 <parameter>--enable-mpms-shared=all</parameter>: This switch ensures that
210 all MPM (Multi Processing Modules) are built as Dynamic Shared Objects
211 (DSOs), so the user can choose which one to use at runtime.

214 <para>

223 behavior, such as default document root, minimal UID that can be used to

240 default icons, etc.) with the ownership of the user that extracted the
241 files from the tar file. If you want to change the ownership to another
242 user, you should do so at this point. The only requirement is that the
243 document directories need to be accessible by the <command>httpd</command>
244 process with (r-x) permissions and files need to be readable (r--) by the
245 <systemitem class="username">apache</systemitem> user.
