Hi I was reading tutorial and it said :

It is then necessary to setup an Alias for Apache. If you’re using Apache2, add a file /etc/apache2/conf.d/horde3.conf containing

Alias /horde3 /usr/share/horde3

Now the prob is that Iam running apache1.3 can anyone tell me how to do the procedure above for apache 1.3 instead of apache2

Any of those config files in conf.d are included by default into httpd.conf, so you can put the same directives in httpd.conf if you so desire. The extra config files just allow you a means to logically group directives for clarity.

Whether the syntax for Alias works or not, you'll have to check, though I believe it's the same.

I got it working thanks..but just in case someone wonders how...concerning my starting thread...you can do all those things in apache1.3 on debian..but it wont work..what you have to do is add the alias to the alias section in the httpd.conf file in /etc/apache/httpd.conf ...I dont know if this is the same for other distros because from my own experience ..apache on debian is configured slightly different on debian than on other distros
