In a Linux-based server, you are tasked with securing the web server configuration file to prevent unauthorized changes. Where is the typical location of the Apache HTTP server configuration file?
The primary configuration file for the Apache HTTP server is usually located at '/etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf' or '/etc/apache2/apache2.conf' depending on the Linux distribution. This file contains directives that configure the overall behavior and modules of the Apache server. Understanding the location of these critical files is important for any security operations task involving system hardening and monitoring for unauthorized changes. The other options provided are common locations but linked to other services or aspects of the OS, making them incorrect for this context.
