With my little experience, RPM I would think is better for me. I did install Mysql and PHP 4.1.1 from source but I found a great tutorial for it If people were not getting this to work with RPM, I am sure it would be noted somewhere > I think the more important question is whether you've been through > Sam's test suite. Have you read the INSTALL page yet? I did read the INSTALL page and the one in the TAR. The problem I find is it is not clear on what you HAVE to do if you are using RPM's. There are quite a few things the INSTALL file says to do but its more geared to compiling from source, I find very few instruction when using RPM. Half the stuff is in a different place using RPM I dont know, it might be me, but there should be an RPM.INSTALL file detailing what needs to be done going the RPM route. Honeslty, I dont know what I HAVE MUST do after installing the RPM's Then it says if you are using webadmin the rest of the file can be configured with it. There is no documentation on webadmin, if someone needed to use it they obviously dont have all the terminolgy down. If I could configure it without webadmin, I would not need to use webadmin, and since I do there should be explanation on what all those settings are for. Whats Sam's test suite. I did not see anything called Sam's test suite. Test child process termination was the only test I could not get to work Courier seems like a great piece of software. I chose it because it is an full mail server in one package. I figures it would be best to have one system running POP, SMTP, WEBMAIL, a WEBADMIN was a bonus good feature Is there a site with more detailed instruction using RPM's ----- Original Message ----- From: "David M.
