mod_authnz_ldap for 2.2.2

Hello,
I installed Apache2.2.2 several weeks ago on my Ubuntu Linux machine
(which is similar to Debian), and also on my Windows XP machine.
I went to my /etc/apache2/mods-available/ directory looking for the
mod_authnz_ldap package which (according to
http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.2/mod/) should be available.
However, the mod_authnz_ldap module does not exist in that directory,
nor do many other modules which the Apache documentation suggests should
exist.
I google searched mod_authnz_download and found nothing but
documentation on how to use it.
The Apache2.2.2 install on my Windows XP machine has the authnz_ldap
module, and many other modules in the rootDirectory/modules/ folder.
My Ubuntu Linux machine contains the single file "httpd.exp" which is
full of ap_* and unix_* packages.

I am assuming that the module in question was not installed when Apache
was installed.
If this is the case, where can I download module packages, particularly
mod_authnz_ldap?
I assumed that the Apache UNIX install would work as was intended on
Ubuntu, was that an incorrect assumption?

Kenneth,
Thank you for the redirect to /usr/lib/apache2/modules/, I was wondering
why none of the modules had the .so extension in the mods-available/
directory.
Upon looking in that folder, I found a mod_auth_ldap.so module which the
link below suggests was replaced by mod_authnz_ldap in the Apache2.2
release.

The documentation said that the most significant change between 2.0 and
2.2 was the authorization modules
(http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.2/upgrading.html).
I have been searching around in the Ubuntu Dapper servertalk and howto
forums, but have found nothing as yet.

I am going to try to use the mod_auth_ldap.so and see how the Apache
takes it.
I will let you know what happens Kenneth.

If anyone has found anywhere to download standard 2.2 modules such as
mod_auth_basic, mod_authn_file, mod_authz_user, mod_authz_groupfile, and
mod_authnz_ldap please let me know.
Your help is always appreciated.
