Bruce Perens takes us to the headlines for the second time in a short while:


"HTTP header order is often characteristic of a web server. The opensourceparking.com headers say Apache, but have the Date & Server headers last, a pattern which is identical to the lighttpd response and entirely unlike a typical Apache response. The etag is also not in Apache format, and matches the lighttpd format"

Netcraft could drop their speculations, had they checked mod_status output on the default URL-path:

If you have the Server Spy extension for Firefox, you can
see that
they are running lighttpd/1.4.13

(It's a handy extension anyway: https:/
/addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/2036 )

...because the Server header says so, so either the Netcraft
message is
bogus, or the OpenSourceParking people changed their config
afterwards.
