I was just wondering how I could change the apache response headers. I would like to change the server name in the response headers from
Apache/1.3.26 (Unix) Debian GNU/Linux
to just
Apache GNU/Linux
how could I configure apache to show this

Thanks

There's the ServerTokens (http://httpd.apache.org/docs/mod/core.html#servertokens) directive; more control might involve using mod_headers (http://httpd.apache.org/docs/mod/mod_headers.html)

A third option is to patch the source before compiling (that's usually what I do).

(Look in ./include/ap_release.h)

I kinda wish ServerTokens was a bit more flexible. A printf-type syntax say, with % tokens for things like OS, Server version....
