45    <p>The <code class="directive"><a href="/mod/core.html#serveradmin">ServerAdmin</a></code> and
46    <code class="directive"><a href="/mod/core.html#servertokens">ServerTokens</a></code> directives
47    control what information about the server will be presented
48    in server-generated documents such as error messages. The
49    <code class="directive"><a href="/mod/core.html#servertokens">ServerTokens</a></code> directive
50    sets the value of the Server HTTP response header field.</p>
51
52    <p>The <code class="directive"><a href="/mod/core.html#servername">ServerName</a></code>,
53    <code class="directive"><a href="/mod/core.html#usecanonicalname">UseCanonicalName</a></code> and
54    <code class="directive"><a href="/mod/core.html#usecanonicalphysicalport">UseCanonicalPhysicalPort</a></code>
55    directives are used by the server to determine how to construct
56    self-referential URLs. For example, when a client requests a
57    directory, but does not include the trailing slash in the
58    directory name, Apache must redirect the client to the full
59    name including the trailing slash so that the client will
60    correctly resolve relative references in the document.</p>

67
68    <p>These directives control the locations of the various files
69    that Apache needs for proper operation. When the pathname used
70    does not begin with a slash (/), the files are located relative
71    to the <code class="directive"><a href="/mod/core.html#serverroot">ServerRoot</a></code>. Be careful
72    about locating files in paths which are writable by non-root users.
73    See the <a href="misc/security_tips.html#serverroot">security tips</a>
74    documentation for more details.</p>

81
82    <p>The <code class="directive">LimitRequest</code>*
83    directives are used to place limits on the amount of resources
84    Apache will use in reading requests from clients. By limiting
85    these values, some kinds of denial of service attacks can be
86    mitigated.</p>
87
88    <p>The <code class="directive">RLimit</code>* directives
89    are used to limit the amount of resources which can be used by
90    processes forked off from the Apache children. In particular,
91    this will control resources used by CGI scripts and SSI exec
92    commands.</p>
93
94    <p>The <code class="directive"><a href="/mod/mpm_common.html#threadstacksize">ThreadStackSize</a></code>
95    directive is used with some platforms to control the stack size.</p>
