Go to your local book store and ask for a book that targets on your flavour of *nix, or your Linux distribution. > I've > looked through google for sites that may help me (including the > subversion.tigris.com) If you really have no idea about *nix, the this is a bad idea. Nearly all *nix related resources in the internet require at least a basic understanding of *nix. > and end up getting more confused.

Install your favourite distro into a virtual machine (hint: use bridged networking, no NAT). You can make snapshots at any time, so it is easy to roll back any changes you made to your Linux. Regarding trac: Trac is pure python, so from a technical point of view, there are no big differences between a windows trac and a *nix trac. Just tell your OS where to find the shared libraries, and you are set. But ask yourself: What is your reason for trac? One great thing with trac is its interface to subversion, but it is perfectly OK to run a trac without subversion; you can also use trac as a wiki only - it all depends on your requirements. But trac without subversion is only half the fun :-) Rainer --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Trac Users" group.
