[users@httpd] PDF Byte serving setup for Apache

[Robinson Craig <Cr...@nrw.qld.gov.au>]

Hi Folks,

I'm interested in taking a look at PDF byte serving. However, google is
being particularly closed-mouthed about how to do this for Apache, and
all the links on Adobe's website are unfortunately broken. So, if anyone
can please either tell me how to do it, or can send me some urls which
tell me how to do it, I would be greatly appreciative.

Just so you know, we run Apache 1.3.36, so a how-to for that would be
the best.
 
Cheers, Craig

There is nothing to be done. Apache supports range requests by default
in all recent version (including 1.3). You will have most luck,
however, if you make sure that the default handler serves the files.
In other words. don't get php or other complex stuff involved.
