[arm-allstar] Hamvoip 1.6-18 with Shari PIHat: need to update apache software: apt-get is not visible

[David McGough]

Don,

What are you trying to run with Apache on the HamVoIP webserver?? If
simply running Supermon, Allmon or related similar AllStar related
monitoring applications, I don't recommend trying to update apache beyond
the version currently installed. There are no security issues that I'm
aware of which are really significant in the way apache is currently used.
I do keep an eye on this!

Further, updating apache beyond the version currently supplied will be 
challenging.  I will mention that a complete system roll-up is in the 
works.

If you've got some specific concern in mind, please contact me directly.

Thanks,

73, David KB4FXC
