Notice to Wikimedia server admins: I've rearranged the Apache configuration files in the pmtpa cluster.
First, the master files have moved from /h/w/conf to /h/w/conf/httpd to keep things more distinct from the other programs' files we have in there. Additionally, instead of symlinking the NFS-shared directory into /usr/local/apache/conf, each Apache now has a local copy of the config files, which should be more robust.
If you need to change the apache config files, run the sync-apache script to rsync the files out before restarting the daemons.
Also, I've switched over from RewriteRule+ampescape patch to an Alias for the /wiki/Foo aliasing. This should make it easier for us to use standard Apache packages in the future.
