Thanks for the help oombera, I bookmarked the sites you gave me.
Unfortunately before your reply I decided there might be a problem with my glibc files, so I installed the rpm I had from my red hat cds, and one thing led to another and I kinda stuffed up my sytem pretty bad, I've fixed most of it but all my start shortcuts arent there anymore. Also, now all of the file associations are gone too (for eg, I click a HTML file and it asks what program I should use to open it).
Its about this time I swore I'll get my red hat 8 cd's back and install that instead... and I'll enter the root password as a random combination of key bashings so I can't log in and stuff it up again
lol but thanks for your help oombera, when I get my system running again no doubt I'll be needing them (because i'll bet it doesn't work - again).

mod_apparmor
MOD_APPARMOR(8) AppArmor MOD_APPARMOR(8)
NAME
mod_apparmor - fine-grained AppArmor confinement for Apache
DESCRIPTION
An AppArmor profile applies to an executable program; if a portion of the program needs different access permissions than other portions,
the program can "change hats" via aa_change_hat(2) to a different role, also known as a subprofile. The mod_apparmor Apache module uses
the aa_change_hat(2) mechanism to offer more fine-grained confinement of dynamic elements within Apache such as individual php and perl
scripts, while still allowing the performance benefits of using mod_php and mod_perl.
To use mod_apparmor with Apache, ensure that mod_apparmor is configured to be loaded into Apache, either via a2enmod, yast or manual
editing of the apache2(8)/httpd(8) configuration files, and restart Apache. Make sure that apparmor is also functioning.
Once mod_apparmor is loaded within Apache, all requests to Apache will cause mod_apparmor to attempt to change into a hat named by the URI
(e.g. /app/some.cgi). If no such hat is found, it will fall back to attempting to use the hat DEFAULT_URI; if that also does not exist, it
will fall back to using the global Apache profile. Most static web pages can simply make use of the DEFAULT_URI hat.
Additionally, before any requests come in to Apache, mod_apparmor will attempt to change hat into the HANDLING_UNTRUSTED_INPUT hat.
mod_apparmor will attempt to use this hat while Apache is doing the initial parsing of a given http request, before its given to a specific
handler (like mod_php) for processing.
Because defining hats for every URI/URL often becomes tedious, mod_apparmor provides the AAHatName and AADefaultHatName Apache
configuration options.
AAHatName
AAHatName allows you to specify a hat to be used for a given Apache <Directory>, <DirectoryMatch>, <Location> or <LocationMatch>
directive (see the Apache documenation for more details). Note that mod_apparmor behavior can become confused if <Directory*> and
<Location*> directives are intermingled and it is recommended to use one type of directive. If the hat specified by AAHatName does not
exist in the Apache profile, then it falls back to the behavior described above.
AADefaultHatName
AADefaultHatName allows you to specify a default hat to be used for virtual hosts and other Apache server directives, so that you can
have different defaults for different virtual hosts. This can be overridden by the AAHatName directive and is checked for only if there
isn't a matching AAHatName or hat named by the URI. If the AADefaultHatName hat does not exist, it falls back to the DEFAULT_URI hat if
it exists (as described above).
URI REQUEST SUMMARY
When profiling with mod_apparmor, it is helpful to keep the following order of operations in mind:
On each URI request, mod_apparmor will first aa_change_hat(2) into ^HANDLING_UNTRUSTED_INPUT, if it exists.
Then, after performing the initial parsing of the request, mod_apparmor will:
1. try to aa_change_hat(2) into a matching AAHatName hat if it exists and applies, otherwise it will
2. try to aa_change_hat(2) into the URI itself, otherwise it will
3. try to aa_change_hat(2) into an AADefaultHatName hat if it has been defined for the server/vhost, otherwise it will
4. try to aa_change_hat(2) into the DEFAULT_URI hat, if it exists, otherwise it will
5. fall back to the global Apache policy
BUGS
mod_apparmor() currently only supports apache2, and has only been tested with the prefork MPM configuration -- threaded configurations of
Apache may not work correctly.
There are likely other bugs lurking about; if you find any, please report them at <http://https://bugs.launchpad.net/apparmor/+filebug>.
