[Featureserver] First steps

[Lehtonen, Mika]

Ok,
I see, now I feel stupid. I tried to test FeatureServer in my operator's 
server. They definitely don't have the ogr. Yeah, OS is anyway Linux. I 
have to switch on to my own Centos server. Just been having some 
problems in installing/building Apache httpd.

thanks,
mika
