All of my apps are deployed in a FastCGI environment with Apache. Our live application server has a custom install of python2.4 with appropriate module versions that we can care for beside the ones that RedHat wants. This works really well. It seems a lot of people hate FCGI for different reasons, but I have found it to be pretty awesome. Apps are very stable, no complicated proxying, and it's almost as performant as mod_python. I have considered converting our deployments to mod_python, but only recently acquired a practical staging environment to test things like that. -- Ross Vandegrift [EMAIL PROTECTED] "The good Christian should beware of mathematicians, and all those who make empty prophecies.
