Don't leave the .conf for Apache 2.4 and later.  Previously, the extension
didn't matter, now it does. Also, sites-enabled/* should be symlinks to
sites-available/*.conf files.

Can't really help more. Stopped using apache for anything serious almost a
decade ago.

Thought only TLSv1.2 should be used anymore. All prior SSL/TLS versions were
broke. Actually, just read a 6+ month old article about this last week when
checking my sites and considering switching to "Let's Encrypt" certs.

And for quickly sharing text files, sprunge.us is nice. No javascript needed to
post something, so *cat file | curl -F 'sprunge=<-' http://sprunge.us* works to
post and get a fresh URL back to share.
