or --add-module?

When you build apache use 

$ ./configure --prefix=/path/to/apache --enable-shared=max

This will build and statically link mod_so which is needed to implement
the DSO module functionality. The "--enable-shared=max" option loads all
other modules as DSO modules. By default, JServ is not included as one
of these, so  you must then compile JServ as

$ ./configure --with-apache-install=/path/to/apache/installation
--with-jdk-home=/path/to/jdk --with-jsdk=/path/to/jsdk

copy mod_jserv.so  to libexec as you describe above, then add the
following lines to your httpd.conf:

--

# load JServ DSO
LoadModule jserv_module       libexec/mod_jserv.so

# Force Apache to recognise JServ
AddModule mod_jserv.c

--

and then put your normal JServ config options within a set of <IfModule
mod_jserv.c> /IfModule tags in httpd.conf. This is from an Apache
1.3.4, JServ 1.0b3 installation on Solaris 2.51
