[users@httpd] Alias directive with no mod_alias

["Bishop, Cass" <cb...@atxna.com>]

I have used apache for a few years no but it has always been the version
that came with Red Hat.  No I am trying to compile my own version and I am a
little confused.  I compile without mod_alias enabled and it does not show
up in my httpd.conf but the Alias directive still works.  My questions are,
why does this work and what other directives/modules does this affect?

Modules may be either statically compiled (included in the binary) or
dynamically compiled (loaded with the LoadModule directive).  The first
can be found using the command "./httpd -l" while the second will be
listed with an appropriate LoadModule in httpd.conf.
