'apt-get remove apache2' removes the package but not the configuration files. Thus when he later did 'apt-get install apache2' apt assumed that he had changed the configuration by removing the files for good reason and declined to reverse his changes. 'apt-get remove --purge apache2' would have deleted all trace of the package. -- John Hasler -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
