[users@httpd] Uninstall Apache

Apache List,
                I just installed Apache and I didn't include all of the
modules.  I would like to uninstall and do a fresh install.  Can someone
tell me how to uninstall?  I have version 2.0.44.  I have tried "make
uninstall" "make remove" "make erase" but none of those seem to work.
Any ideas?  Thanks,

It depends on how you installed it.  If you just did "configure; make;
make install" then you can remove it simply with
rm -rf /usr/local/apache2
(and remove any reference in your OS startup scripts).
Note this will also remove any webpages and configuration files, so you
may want to copy those someplace else first.
