Hi is it possible to remove the Powered by (ServerToken) from 404? I can create a custom error page but I don't wanted to do that.
Currently I get:

404 Not Found
The resource requested could not be found on this server!

Powered By LiteSpeed Web Server
Lite Speed Technologies is not responsible for administration and contents of this web site!

But I only want to see:
404 Not Found
The resource requested could not be found on this server!

Regards.

You have to add a custom error page.

While it's true you can create custom error pages for hosts the server will still report the Powered by message if the vhost can't be found on the server.

There isn't a way to customize the server messages, only the vhost. It would be nice the have the option to omit the Powered by message at the server level.

We will add an option to suppress that in 4.0 Enterprise

May I ask where is that option? I am using Litespeed Web Server Enterprise v4.0.15. Thank you.

Hi I hope I'm not digging this post up from the grave, but I was curious as to where the option to turn off the "Powered by Litespeed" as this is a mild security issue for us when we are using litespeed.

If there is no option I guess the best way would be to create custom error pages that hide it.

We're currently using 4.1.1 Enterprise.

Thanks in advance.

no option in lsws to turn it off. custom error page is the way to do it.

Alright; sounds good thanks again for the quick reply.
Could I bother to ask if Litespeed may in the future have the ability to hide its name on these pages or will people need to stick with creating custom error pages?

It is a low priority item on the to-do list. No ETA at this point.
