I read that bit when installing my own copy of phpmyadmin last year. My own notes indicate that attempting to install mcrypt wasn't successful - as I recall, this just wasn't going to work and I wouldn't necessarily consider mcrypt to be worthwhile. (Especially as it's not actually necessary.) -- -Peter Tribble http://www.petertribble.co.uk/ - http://ptribble.blogspot.com/
