17.1. HTTP Server name conventions
The following tables outline the naming and location conventions used when discussing HTTPD-related topics.

| Operating System | HTTPD_CONF.D | HTTPD_CONF | HTTPD_MODULES |
|---|---|---|---|
| Red Hat Enterprise Linux (httpd) | /etc/httpd/conf.d | /etc/httpd/conf | /etc/httpd/modules |
| HPUX (Web Server Suite) | See note below. | /opt/hpws/apache/conf | /opt/hpws/apache/modules |
Note
There is no
conf.d in HP-UX's Web server Suite for Apache HTTP Server. You can create one, however:
