Hello everyone,
I'm new to this list and in fact have just subscribed here, as I just heard 
about Packetfence and would like to use it as a network security system!
Since I'm a Debian user, I added the repository for Packetfence to my 
sources.list.d directory, ran aptitude update and then attempted to install 
with aptitude install packetfence.
Well, unfortunately that doesn't seem to be possible for some reason, as I'm 
getting the following results:

 apache2-mpm-worker : Conflicts: apache2-mpm which is a virtual package.
The following actions will resolve these dependencies:

     Keep the following packages at their current version:
1)     apache2-mpm-prefork [Not Installed]                
2)     libapache2-mod-php5 [Not Installed]                
3)     packetfence [Not Installed]                        



Accept this solution? [Y/n/q/?] 

Of course, accepting this would mean I'd end up with pretty much nothing at 
all, as pretty much none of the dependencies would be met. Is there any easy 
way of resolving this, or is the version from the repository unusable?
Also, when I install this on a machine with multiple ethernet ports, do I need 
to setup things like DHCP, NAT, etc. manually, or should I leave the system as 
"plain" as possible and configure these things using Packetfence?
Thanks a lot for any info on these things!
