## Configuration
`/etc/httpd/conf.d/mod_serverheader.conf`
## ServerHeader Directive
[Description](https://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.4/mod/directive-dict.html#Description): Modify Server header contents
[Syntax](https://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.4/mod/directive-dict.html#Syntax): ServerHeader *value*
[Context](https://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.4/mod/directive-dict.html#Context): server config, virtual host
[Module](https://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.4/mod/directive-dict.html#Module): mod_serverheader
-----------
This directive allows you to override Apache HTTPD's `Server` response header. In addition to configuring this directive, you may also need to modify your [`ServerTokens`](https://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.4/mod/core.html#servertokens) directive to allow for a longer value to be used.
#### Example Usage:
```
LoadModule serverheader_module modules/mod_serverheader.so
ServerTokens Full
ServerHeader my-server
```
Client will see this:
```
# curl -I http://example.com/
HTTP/1.1 200 OK
Date: Sat, 25 Feb 2017 01:47:40 GMT
Server: my-server ◀◀◀◀◀◀◀◀
