Hi Jini
If you installed RHL 6.2 from the PCQuest CDROM, you will find some files
like apache*.rpm in the CD-ROMs RedHat/RPMS directory.
Mount your CD-ROM using mount /mnt/cdrom
Then cd /mnt/cdrom/RedHat/RPMS
rpm -ivh apache*
If rpm says it needs some other packages too....install those packages using
rpm -ivh package-name
Finally, type setup
choose system services
Make sure inetd is turned on...Reboot your system.
log in and type
lynx http://127.0.0.1/ and you are done!
YOU MUST BE LOGGED IN AS root TO USE RPM!
Hope this helps
Srinivasan Ranganathan
