Are there RPMS that I download for PHP, or do I have to > recompile apache, again? :) I say PHP is easier because it is specifically designed for use creating web based apps using Databases. Where as Perl is an "all purpose" language (well really not much it can't do, but that is as much a strength as a weakness to me). If you have that much time invested in the app you have already written though, weigh your options carefully. I wouldn't want you getting in too deep by having to learn something new (though it will seem easy compared to Perl). If you want to give PHP a try you should only need the RPMs that are already on your Red Hat CDs. They will install what you need without any recompiles. Likely the packages you need to get you started are... php-x.x.x (base package, REQUIRED) php-mysql-x.x.x (connects you to mysql servers) php-imap-x.x.x (optional, for connecting to pop/imap mail servers) php-ldap-x.x.x (optional, for connecting to LDAP servers) -- Brian Ashe CTO Dee-Web Software Services, LLC.
