I'd like to add an OT here:
if you are going to install or modify things, I always use this:
script foo
foo being any filename I want to use.  Then, everything that goes onto
the screen (except vi sessions) appear in foo -- all my commands and
errors and all the output from them.  Can be very helpful.  A simple
exit will stop script.

When I had several junior admins working for me, script was called on
root login with the date as the argument.  Then if something was
hosed, I could retrace what was done.
