SSL and Apache
OpenSSL came out with a new update which left lighttpd unable to start. There has been a patch released for this fix, but I am going to wait until Pacman releases a new version of lighttpd, which I hope will include the new patch. Until then, SSL is currently offline. Please be aware that this does NOT affect the ircd SSL for ApolloIRC. You are still able to securely connect to ApolloIRC, but you will have to wait a while before you can use SSL.

UPDATE: The fix has been implemented. SSL is now back online.

Apache has been removed due to its flawed evhost capabilities. I was originally going to use Apache to work with some SVN repositories, but since I haven't worked with that in a couple of months and don't intend on working with it again, I've removed it from the webserver. It also posed as a security threat by allowing users to see the root directory of the domain folder structure of the webserver.
