[LON-CAPA-admin] apache upgrade

[Martin Siegert]

Thanks Guy.

FYI:

I just did a

# rpm -Uvh --force apache-1.3.22-5.6.i386.rpm apache-devel-1.3.22-5.6.i386.rpm

on dalton.chem.sfu.ca. As expected this did not overwrite
/etc/httpd/conf/access.conf, /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf,
/etc/httpd/conf/srm.conf or /home/httpd/html/index.html.

I then restarted apache ("/etc/rc.d/init.d/httpd restart") and everything
appears to be fine.

Cheers,
Martin
