Apache
A {open source} {HTTP} server for
{Unix}, {Windows NT}, and other {platforms}. Apache was
developed in early 1995, based on code and ideas found in the
most popular HTTP server of the time, {NCSA httpd} 1.3. It
has since evolved to rival (and probably surpass) almost any
other {Unix} based HTTP server in terms of functionality, and
speed. Since April 1996 Apache has been the most popular HTTP
server on the {Internet}, in May 1999 it was running on 57% of
all web servers.
It features highly configurable error messages, {DBM}-based
{authentication} {databases}, and {content negotiation}.
Latest version: 1.3.9, as of 1999-10-27.
