thanks for the reply. i need a couple of clarifications...
1. is there a way to use easy_install right out of the box? reason i
ask is the web2py book references using easy_install to add a module,
see here... http://web2py.com/book/default/section/4/18
2. are there other ways of adding modules?
thanks for the help.
