How do I make Apache 2 my default server?

I have a RedHat 7.2 system. I downloaded and compiled Apache 2.0.47
and it runs IF I manually stop the default httpd (1.3.27) then start
2.0.47. Which files do I edit (and how) to make 2.x the server that
starts at boot time?

TIA.

There are a couple of things you need to know - first off, read the man page
for init tab

$ man inittab

If on the otherhand do not think you'll need Apache 1.3 then you can just
remove it (as root)

# rpm --erase apache-1.3.27

If that doesn't work then you've got the wrong file name - do a

# rpm --query --all | grep -i apache

and re-execute the first rpm --erase command with the apache 1.3 file name
you see listed.

This should fix your problem.
