[users@httpd] question about Apache versions

[Ashnil Dixit <as...@Alum.Dartmouth.ORG>]

 
All,

Relative newbie to Apache here. Trying to setup certificate based client
authentication for a website.
I am a little confused as to why there are versions of Apache available -
Apache 1.3, 2.0 and 2.2?

Does Apache 2.2 superceed the other two versions? Which version should I go
with?

Thanks,
Ash

For a new site you should use 2.2 unless you have a specific reason to
choose another version.  Such a reason might be a module that is not
compatible with 2.2, but I don't think many of those still exist.  2.2
is the version that has ongoing development.
