Brian, a question for clarification.  When you say "customized 404 
response", you are not referring to a customized error document (as 
described briefly in the httpd.conf file) but rather to having changed the 
headers that the server returns when queried with a GET request, correct? 
And wouldn't this require changing source code and compiling a custom 
build of apache?
