What types of examples? Textual examples of how to set up a
backhand-handler section? they are put in the httpd.conf file if you

Nope, you sent me exactly what I needed: thanks. FWIW, the links on the
configuration help page are bad:

And the managers rejoiced: all was good again. I think the logs head to
/dev/null... but don't quote me on that.
