We have done a great job! Now I'm off packaging every cool php I can find. I just fixed a whole bunch of the ones in contribs, the admin like ones I mean. I made is so that apps like "phpMyAdmin" resides in a common "webadminroot" like "/var/www/admin/phpMyAdmin" or whatever you pass with the magic --relocate rpm flag, real cute. So maybe we could have a simple admin html page in there soon if some artistic person is up to it? Chears. -- Regards // Oden Eriksson Deserve-IT Networks -> http://d-srv.com
