That's not quite true. I'll give you this: There _is_ documentation to take care of everything. It's only through experience that you learn/realize which documentation you need to look through to make sure everything works well without trial and error. The only compatability problem I'm aware of is Qmail. Here's something I googled that will help: http://forum.psoft.net/archive/index.php/t-7499.html There's a web site called lifewithqmail.org that goes through alot of the step-by-step process for Qmail if you're not familiar with how to install/administer DJB tools (eg: daemontools, tcpserver). I have a preference to use the MySQL 4 downloaded from www.mysql.com instead of the MySQL 3 supplied by RedHat. When doing things like backups or replication, MySQL 4 is better. There are also a couple books: Qmail - www.ora.com The Qmail Handbook - www.apress.com I like the newer O'reilly book better. If you are getting paid by your company to install everything, and if you make more than $6/hour, it will be faster, more cost-effective, and less problematic to have someone from Inter7 install "Web Q" for you within a few hours. They install all of this stuff for a living and get it right the first time. You can then go through installing everything yourself at your leisure as an educational exercise. They leave you their souce code behind so you can see the differences between stock code and their modifications. -- Eric Ziegast (no, I don't work for Inter7)
