hi Michael;
i'm still learning linux, but from what i understand Mandrake is based on the Red Hat
system and that most red hat rpms will work for mandrake. however, it has also been
said on this list that it is best to use mandrake rpms when you can. so i would
suggest look for the mandrake version first. if you can only find the red hat
version, then simply do a test install, checking for dependanceies and all that stuff.
if you get no errors from the test then that would lead me to believe it will work
fine.
if i'm wrong about anything here hopefully someone will let us both know.
=)
have a better one

I'm starting to learn PHP3 and Postgres and the book I just got has a CD
in it that says it has everything I need to install PHP and postgres
under RedHat Linux. Since I am using Mandrake 7.1, I was wondering if
this will work? The Mandrake website says I can use RedHat RPM's, but I
just wanted to check.
TIA,
Michael
