In this tutorial I want to focus on how to change the Apache server name to whatever you want, so you can give your own name or sentence to Apache server headers that are sent to whois programs or websites, for example you can type "YTS", "GWS" or "Microsoft-IIS/7.0" to misguide the hacker to guess which Linux OS or which version of Apache you are using.
