Apache - A full web server?

[chris_f]

Hi Folks.

I was looking at this thread here [webmasterworld.com] and noticed that people where running sites on apache. This has confused me. I thought apache was only responsible for mod rewritting. Can you actually host sites using apache?

Apache is a full webserver software, same as IIS or Enterprise. mod rewrite is just a function that is available on Apache servers.
