They should get a copy of the latest version from cvs (http://go-mono.com/daily), or the latest release (0.25), and extract the files from the tarball. They can then execute: ./configure --prefix=/path/to/prefix Where /path/to/prefix is a directory where they can write to. Folders such as bin/ and lib/ will be made, they have the traditional functions. They must then set MONO_PATH to lib/, and make sure bin/ is in their path. They should then be all set. It may be easier, however, for your users to ask a system administrator to install the latest RPM. If they use Red Carpet, this would be as simple as: rug in mono Otherwise, they can download the latest release and install the RPM. If you have any more questions, please feel free to ask. I am glad to hear you are looking into deploying Mono. -- Ben _______________________________________________ Mono-list maillist - [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.ximian.com/mailman/listinfo/mono-list
