I am coming back to this issue again. I would like to eliminate some
of the headache by not having both servers running concurrently.
Therefore, How can I make Apache 1 (php4) not to start when the box
starts and make Apache 2 (php5) starts when the box starts. Then if I
need to work with php4, I will stop apache2 and start apache1.
Am I making sense?
