Apache server type in response header -


i don't want server type shown in response headers. i've tried add httpd.conf, saw in many answers:

serversignature off  servertokens prod 

but still see "server: apache" in response:

enter image description here

can remove "apache" response?


update


also tried this:

loadmodule headers_module modules/mod_headers.so  header unset server  header unset x-powered-by 

but got same response.

you cannot remove header server: apache unless modify source code , recompile apache. , if do, still may not difficult find out server software running.

make search "webserver fingerprinting", find http header response ordering, answers malformed requests , other ways discover server running. spend time securing application instead of trying achieve obfuscation.

from apache doc:

setting servertokens less minimal not recommended because makes more difficult debug interoperational problems. note disabling server: header nothing @ make server more secure.
