To Hide Apache Information

[servertech]

Hi guys, you can just check this out..

To hide the information, add the following two apache directives in Apache configuration file /etc/apache2/apache2.conf
ServerTokens ProductOnly
ServerSignature Off
Now you need to restart your web server using the following command
#/etc/init.d/apache2 restart
Now the output for apache header looks like below
Server: Apache


Hit me back if you got any questions

Thanks , we can also hide the PHP version like that.

Hide PHP Version Details

If you want to hide the PHP version you need to edit the /etc/php4/apache/php.ini(For php4 users) file and /etc/php5/apache/php.ini (For php5 users)

Change the following option

expose_php On

to

expose_php Off

Now you need to restart your web server using the following command

#/etc/init.d/apache2 restart

After making this change PHP will no longer add it’s signature to the web server header.

If you are running php from cli against a php file, the output is a html file (as seen by a browser). In some distributions (like Debian) the php-cli is controlled by a different php.ini file (/etc/php[4,5]/cli/php.ini).
