Hi,
I have a box at work (running either rh9 or rhel 2.1) that we needed to add 
apache 1.3 to. Apache 2 was already running and was still required so I just 
grabbed 1.3 source (httpd.apache.org). It installs into /usr/local by 
default. The 2.0 rpm uses /etc/httpd, so the two run independently. You just 
need to have the Listen directive set up correct on each and have a second IP 
or port, and you'll need to make init scripts if needed. (and maybe update 
your fw rules)

If you don't need the 2.0 running, you could just stop it, then install 
apache1.3 in /usr/local, edit the init script to use 1.3 and then start it.

Hope that helps.
