AFAICT, your question seems to have nothing to do with MySQL. I suggest
that you might find better results from more expert people by asking
your question on a newsgroup more specific to Apache and/or Linux, such
as comp.infosystems.
www.servers.unix, comp.os.linux.setup,
redhat.rpm.general, etc.
It is customary for install tools of Apache to not overwrite httpd.conf,
where most Apache configuration is recorded. But installing the Apache
RPM could overwrite other files which might result in compatibility
problems.
I haven't used ARCserve. I'm assuming ARCserve has a dependency on
Apache because ARCserve has a web-based backup administration interface.
Is there equivalent non-web-based admin functionality? You could try
installing the ARCserve RPM with -f (force install regardless of
unsatisfied dependencies) and use only the CLI-based features.
Or try to tinker with your default Apache httpd.conf to enable the
ARCserve web interface.
