Re: Apache 2.2 showing version

no KDK, you were not incorrect. in fact, my answer should have included your
information, and your answer should have included mine (ie, we were both a
little short). the fact is, that both items should be considered when taming
down that particular info that apache displays.

ServerTokens specifies the verbosity, while ServerSignature allows it on, or
eliminates it altogether.
