Re: Apache or IIS

true... I've always thought that if someone can code php or java, configuring a conf file should be (and is) a piece of cake. It suprises me to find many developers have a morbid fear (or maybe it's just laziness) of configuring servers by editing a conf file. I guess the division of labour and hyper-specialisation has limited us from thinking outside (or at least in another area of) the box.
