Apache HTTP Server

The Apache HTTP Server is a powerful, flexible, HTTP/1.1 and HTTP/2 compliant, and widely deployed web server. Originally designed as a replacement for the NCSA HTTP Server, it has been in continuous development since 1995 and remains one of the foundational projects of the Apache Software Foundation. The developers aim to collaboratively develop and maintain a robust, commercial-grade, standards-based server with freely available source code. Details of the latest version can be found on the Apache HTTP server project page. Please see the file called INSTALL . Platform specific notes can be found in README.platforms . This distribution may include software that has been designed for use with cryptographic software. The country in which you currently reside may have restrictions on the import, possession, use, and/or re-export to another country, of encryption software. BEFORE using any encryption software, please check your country's laws, regulations and policies concerning the import, possession, or use, and re-export of encryption software, to see if this is permitted. See The U.S. Government Department of Commerce, Bureau of Industry and Security (BIS), has classified this software as Export Commodity Control Number (ECCN) 5D002.C.1, which includes information security software using or performing cryptographic functions with asymmetric algorithms. The form and manner of this Apache Software Foundation distribution makes it eligible for export under the License Exception ENC Technology Software Unrestricted (TSU) exception (see the BIS Export Administration Regulations, Section 740.13) for both object code and source code. Apache httpd 2.0 and later versions include the mod ssl module under modules/ssl/ for configuring and listening to connections over SSL encrypted network sockets by performing calls to a general-purpose encryption library, such as OpenSSL or the operating system's platform-specific SSL facilities. In addition, some versions of apr-util provide an abstract interface for symmetrical cryptographic functions that make use of a general-purpose encryption library, such as OpenSSL, NSS, or the operating system's platform-specific facilities. This interface is known as the apr crypto interface, with implementation beneath the /crypto directory. The apr crypto interface is used by the mod session crypto module available under modules/session for optional encryption of session information. The above files are optional and may be removed if the cryptographic functionality is not desired or needs to be excluded from redistribution. Distribution packages of Apache httpd that include the word "nossl" in the package name have been created without the above files and are therefore not subject to this notice.
