[users@httpd] upgrade mod_rewrite
Hello all,
I'm currently using apache 1.3.33. Because of some auditing concerns I was
told I need to upgrade mod_rewrite. Problem is that I really don't know
what that entails. I'm not sure how to determine what version I'm using (if
it's not tied to apache 1.3). Do I need to upgrade my apache installation
to apache2? Any help is greatly appreciated.
Matt

mod_rewrite is versioned with apache, and the only (supported) way to
upgrade it is to upgrade apache.
What, exactly, is the reported problem? I'm guessing it is
CVE-2006-3747, in which case it can be fixed by moving to 1.3.37 or
higher. (But going to 2.2 is not a bad idea, in general.)
