John sorry by by your logic you set a person, with no previous knowledge, in a car and tell him to drive. Not only that, but you put him in the middle of car rally. Before you can walk you need to crawl. Unfortunately, for some unexplained reason we all start assuming that Joe Sixpack must be able to write C++ code with no training at all, why? To drive a car one need to have drives license because one can be one can put 100-1,000 people in a danger. By running web server one can put 100,000-1,000,000 people in danger. (It looks like it is over statement but what if virus gets to some atomic lab for example.) The m$ world was originally created to provide complicated tools to average consumer. Look where it brought us too. Simplification of the computer use could be done with in two schemas. One is to hide from user a complexity of process, or m$ way. Click on this icon and your IIS web server will start in background. Another with education. Read 800 page book and you would be able to setup Apache. By design *NIX are falling in second schema. RTFM is a call to read documentation. For a wile we where a colleague, I thought language to adults and before they could read words they started from studying alphabet. It is impossible to combine two schemas sines they are mutually exclusive. Hence, if one like simplicity and does not like to read documintation, s/he dangerous to *NIX world. Because, s/he drug us close to the cliff of m$ pit fall. -- Yankl Tiny IT guy. 100 % Micro$oft free. Registered linux users 181086 URL: http://yankele.com
