Hi Joseph,
That's good to know. I guess I'll just leave the "httpd2-refork.conf" file alone until I want to do an upgrade and then switch it back to "loadmodule.conf". However, I think your computer will remove mod-mono from the loadmodule.conf file if you don't have it listed in the list of modules in the apache2 file in the /etc/sysconfig folder. I noticed that those two files are dependent on each other. I think you need both mono and mod_mono listed in the apache2 file. I downloaded the RPMs for rcd, rug, and red-carpet (from Novell, Ximian, or SuSE - I can't remember where I found them) and then used YaST to install the RPMs from the local machine. After that, Red Carpet appears as a menu item, so I didn't use a command line to start Red Carpet. One thing I see in your tutorial that I didn't know is how to stop and start Apache. I've been rebooting the machine. It will be a lot easier using the YaST Run Level editor. I also forgot to mention that XSP runs just fine after installing all the mono RPMs using Red Carpet. The only thing that is difficult is the ASP.NET mod_mono piece. Runnig XSP is a good idea, because then you know that ASP.NET is working and its just a matter of configuring Apache correctly.
