ok, I'll give it another shot I suppose. I only started learning English about 18 months ago, I have a long way to go yet, So after analysing what has happened, I guess some turn of phrases I have used or others have used may have got lost in translation on my side.
In terms of installing aolserver, I remember asking some questions on the mailing list as I was completely lost, not only that, I had only used Linux for 3 or 4 months by then, that didn't help not knowing Unix systems. But I try to get by with the little knowledge I have on this, after all, it can't be that difficult, if one person can learn something, anyone can as long as it is not rocket science. So I have decided to stick with you guys. You are a great group of people and I have learned a lot from you already, you are right that it would be a mistake to stop now and look somewhere else.
