== Apache Configuration Files ==

There are two main files used to configure Apache

/etc/httpd/conf
/etc/httpd/conf.d/ssl.conf

There are several other files in these directories. Other services that work with Apache will install their own configuration files in the same directories.

== Default Configuration ==

The http.conf files includes all of the files in conf.d as stating in the first line

<syntaxhighlight>
Include conf.d/*.conf
</syntaxhighlight>


Each directory, file or module to be configured is contained in <> brackets

<syntaxhighlight>
<Directory />
    Options FollowSymLinks
    AllowOverride None
</Directory>
</syntaxhighlight>


== Apache Conf Directives ==

There are a large number of directives used throughout the files There are too many to list here - please see http://localhost/manual/mod/quickreference.
