Hi, I am wanting to set up an Apache Web Server with mod_perl. I have a Mac G4 and a few questions.
1) I am wondering whether to use Linux-ppc or Mac OS X as the OS. I am hoping that someone, (or a few of you) with experience on these platforms, would let me know what you like or dislike about either. 2) I have not seen anyting about mod_perl w/Apache on OS X, but I assume that since OS X is Unix based that it would work. Is that correct? 3) From the apple web site I saw the following comment -- "Also, Perl 5.6 (the BSD Unix version) will be included with Mac OS X, eliminating the need to install a separate freeware package for Perl capabilities like MacPerl." Then on this newsgroup, I was reading about the excitement over the release of MacPerl 5.6.1. If the linux version of perl runs on OS X then why the buzz over the current release of MacPerl? Thank you very much for any help. Thomas Whitney
