To convert an ASCII-type file (.htm*, .shtm*, or .txt), use the tobyte
utility with the -at option. If it is a binary-type file (such as .jpeg, .jpg,
or .gif), do not use the -at option:
shell/iX>tobyte -at /APACHE/PUB/htdocs/index.html
/APACHE/PUB/htdocs/newindex.html
For more information on the “tobyte” utility, consult the POSIX help
facility (i.e., man tobyte).
If the Apache web server seems slow in responding, you might try
running the Apache job stream file, JHTTPD, in the C queue instead of
in the default D queue. The changes shown below allow Apache to run
in the C queue while keeping the default execution level for jobs in the
D queue. The jobpri command can be executed on the console or in a
systart file.
