Well, I installed phpsysinfo myself which did bring in a bunch of apache 
packages and others even after manually installing a package
that provided httpd. Dependency hell-:o)  the man phpsysinfo does
explain how phpsysinfo is used.  You have to add this to your browser 
address bar to access the data:

http://<server_name>/phpsysinfo

Now, If I just knew what server name should be-:o)
