Hi .. 
I got your email address from the Perl mailing list. IT appears to me that you know Perl a lil better then me. At the moment, I am trying to get my self familiar with Perl and Mod_Perl interface.

I am having issues using some mod_perl routines ( i guess). here is what I am running on my mandriva linux box 

I did the following:

suppressed /]# apachectl -v
Server version: Apache/2.2.3
Server built:   Jul 28 2006 12:12:07

and it returned me the val of Server Version : Apache / 
2.2.3 does that mean that I got my Apache webserver all set? What is Apache 1.3 server? is it different then HTTP Server?

I tried writing a small perl program and tried to read the output, i was able to read it via web-server interface - that should mean that I have mod-perl configured. ? is that enough? or should i check it more?

I wanted to monitor my server resources by using Apache::Vmonitor module, I tried adding the following lines to perl conf file in /etc/httpd/module/75_modperl.conf

<Location>
SetHandler perl-script
PerlHander Apache::Vmonitor
Options ExecCGI
...
...
</Location>

When i tried to shut the apachetl server, i got the error msg stating that Perlhandler is not recoganized synatx.. I am sure I am missing something here,  Can you guide me to get out of this issue?

Thanks, 

Asim
