Thanks Cornelius,
So this means I have to execute the commands in following order:
# ./configure
yes
# make
yes
# checkinstall -R
no.
# make install
The above steps would create RPM file. Also, this means that "make install" would actually NOT install apache but rather create a RPM filw which I can use by RPM...correct me if I am wrong.
Hello Hari Om,
the last step has to be "checkinstall -R make install".
Checkinstall gets the "make install" command as a paramter. Moreover you pass the parameter "-R" to say, that you want to build an rpm (you could also build a .deb package).
After this last command the softare _is_ installed (since the command make install is also executed by "checkinstall") AND you built an rpm-packages. I.e. you could redo the make install by tying
rpm -e apache
The rpm-packages is installed and also stored under /usr/src/redhat/RPMS/i386
Regards Cornelius
THANSK a MILLION for your INPUT.

you can use "checkinstall" to make your own rpm. Download the source-tgz and do a: ./configure && make && checkinstall -R make install
checkinstall watches the output of "make install" and generates your own rpm!
