<World-Wide Web, project> A public domain HTTP server for Unix. 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. In August 1996 Apache was the most popular HTTP server on the Internet, running on 36% of all web servers.
It features highly configurable error messages, DBM-based authentication databases, and content negotiation. It also offers improved performance, and fixes many bugs in the NCSA 1.3 code.
Version: 1.1.1 (Aug 1996).
