Mod_gzip is a content encoding module for Apache. When properly installed it can provide some tremendous savings on bandwidth, and improvements in performance. Problem is, it doesn't properly install under LM (v7.2) - apapche errors out at restart. This might be due to some of the existing patches. Has anyone managed to get mod_gzip to work under Mandrake, are there efforts underway, and will cooker include mod_gzip? Harry
