Ok - I just compiled apache and installed the newest one on RH 9.

Sync a folder?
Hi there - I am wondering what the best command is to use to sync one folder with another? I am simply backing up a folder to another drive, and I know I could just copy over, but I want the backup to have any files removed that I may remove out of the original I'm just going to throw it in a shell script and get cron to run it nightly.

Cool - I will give this a go. By chance is there a way to use disk druid or a GUI tool to partition and format a drive (2nd drive after install)?

Hi there - I installed RH8 on a system with 2 physical hard drives. I let Linux partition the first as it wanted, but now I am in the GUIO, and need to format the 2nd drive and mount it... How would I go about this? I had a look under system tools, and the is the disk manager in there - but I do not see my 2nd hard drive... Thanks in advance!

Re: Compile modules for Apache V2
Ok, so I tried compiling Apache this evening, and I never got any errors, BUT It seems as though it has installed into the root of the drive, There are all these files there now like... "httpd.conf" and "httpd-2.0.40-pod.patch", etc etc And at the command line when I run /usr/bin/httpd -V it still shows as being V 2.0.40 instead of V 2.0.44... What I ran for commands to create the package were... ./configure --enable-module=so --enable-ssl --with-layout=RedHat I was hoping this wopuld compile and install over my previous version of Apache... Then I ran: make then: make install Can anyone see where I went wrong? I am just trying to upgrade my Apach install from 2.0.40 to 2.0.44 with all the same options and modules in the same location And to have the GUI work too. Thanks in advance!

Redhat file server using W2K user id's

Was it possible to share out a folder on the RH box, but use the user id's from my (w2K) Active Directory?

Re: Compile modules for Apache V2
Also, does this also install with the same modules and configuration as the previous version? And if not, how can you see what modules were compiled with Apache In the original installs so you can be sure to compile and upgrade with the same features? Sorry for the billion questions... I am just learning this! Thanks to all who keep replying.

One other question I have is... How can you see where your existing install is located? I want to be sure I upgrade that one and not install another version.. I also want to make sure the GUI will work for the new version! Thanks for the answers on compiling too.. I will try them shortly.

Re: Compile modules for Apache V2
To add to my questions, is there an easy way to simply update an existing apache install to a newer version Keeping all the same install locations, and modules that were compiled in your previous version? I am having a hard time trying to figure out this compiling stuff. So I am hoping their is an easier way to get this installed. Thanks!!!

Compile modules for Apache V2
Hi there, I need to compile Apache again so that I can hopefully get coldfusion mx to work with my version of redhat (V8)...

Apache 2.041or above RPM's?
Does anyone know if there is a RPM anywhere for Apache 2.0.41 or above? I need it for coldfusion to work on my redhat 8 system. But since I am brand to linux ,and have been reading, etc I still prefer the RPM at this point. On the redhat FTP, the newest they seem to have is 2.0.40. And if there are any people running Coldfusion MX on redhat 8, I would like to talk to you off list if possible. Thanks!!
