httpd.conf will be moved to httpd.conf.rpmsave when you rpm -e If I recall.
then when you do the install you will have a stock httpd.conf

Hi,
I'm trying to use the rpm command to refresh the httpd package which
has a broken httpd.conf file installed. (ie replace httpd.conf with a
stock copy) However I can't get the rpm to overwrite that file. (The
only way I have found is to actually delete the file manually, and
then rerun a forced install)
Any ideas on this?
Thanks,
Tom H
