a freeside backend (http://www.sisd.com/freeside/).  For  FreeRADIUS server
(http://www.freeradius.org/)

No this explains it best:
http://blogs.law.harvard.edu/rlucas/2003/08/26#a13
.... mod_perl2 and  HTTPD 2 don't behave well together!

Also I would like to ask a question  answered if possible.

Can I get a Apache 1.3.xxx thats has support for PerlModules (mod_perl)
the best I can ascertain is comments in the html file to the RPM EG
http://www.rpmfind.net/linux/RPM/redhat/updates/7.2/i386/apache-1.3.27-3.7.2.i386.html

I get errors like this:
Syntax error on line 1456 of /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf
Invalid command 'PerlModule' , perhaps mis-spelled or defined by a module
not icluded in the in the server configuration

I have :

LoadModule     perl_module    modules/libperl.so

And the required support in httpd.conf.


I am wanting to Load:

PerlModule Apache::ASP

with no success


I've exhausted redhat rpms EG but are uncertain about trying EG
http://www.rpmfind.net/linux/RPM/PLD/dists/ra/PLD/i686/PLD/RPMS/apache-1.3.27-3.i686.html
as it requires  3 extra packages:
1/    rc-scripts (which I am unable to acertain whether it is a redhat
offering.)
PLD only one found:
http://fr.rpmfind.net/linux/RPM/PLD/dists/ra/PLD/i686/PLD/RPMS/rc-scripts-0.3.1-11.i686.html
2/    /usr/bin/getid
3/    /bin/id
