In Ubuntu 9.10 I can't get apache directive ServerTokens to work. My httpd.conf looks like below.

ServerName server.mydomain.com
ServerSignature Off
ServerTokens Prod

ServerName solved startup warnings, but ServerTokens doesn't take. Both Firebug and nmap reports Apache/2.2.12 (Ubuntu)

Try: ServerTokens ProductOnly

Probably goes without..but you will need to reload for changes to take effect.

Perhaps the ServerTokens directive is listed in one of the include files. "grep -Ri servertokens /etc/httpd/" – CarpeNoctem Feb 8 '10 at 23:42
Of course, genius! The server token was set in /etc/apache2/conf.d/security. Thank you! – Znarkus Feb 24 '10 at 12:45
haha, I spent 3 hours one time trying to figure out why my ssl config for a vhost wasn't working. Include files are sneaky! ;) – CarpeNoctem Feb 24 '10 at 12:53
