Installing apache 2.2 on FreeBSD 6.1
So the next step was to install apache. Why? Because FreeBSD is known as the mack-daddy of all OS’s that host websites. Longest uptimes, best performance. So I decided to see what all the hype was about.
as root:
pkg_add -r apache22
When it was done installing, it told me I could make apache start at boot time by adding the line:
apache22_enable=”YES”
to my /etc/rc.conf
which I did, rebooted, then pointed a webbrowser to the machine, and got the message:
It works!
Which is exactly what we want.
