It seems like there could be three different approaches: -Apache puts it under /etc/apache -MySQL in Fedora/Red Hat puts a default under /etc -PostgreSQL does not have default, but gives a sample under /usr/postgres/8.2/etc I guess this is related to another discussion about where to binaries (directly under /usr/bin or /usr/mysql/5.0/bin) ? > > And also for MySQL there might be a default for where to put database > logfiles and datafiles.

Propose to use one package for the server and separate packages for clients, as it seems to be standard.
