Exhaustive Options List

This part of the interface allows you to select the features to include with your EasyApache profile.

Read through each one and select the features you would like to include with your profile.

By clicking More Info, you can visit the feature’s website to read the documentation concerning that feature.

To select features to include in your EasyApache profile:

   • Remember: Only select features you will use.
   • Important: Read the descriptions and documentation on each feature if you think you might like to include it in the Easy Apache profile.

3. Choose the next step:

     • The profile will be saved to your server’s hard drive but will not be installed. Next, you may choose from 2 options:
       • Build profile I just saved — Clicking this button will install the profile that you have just created.
