That is the path I took. Actually let RH 9 do a full install, then rpm
-e httpd and php (and dependancies), build http and php from tarballs.
Did have to grab the mysql-devel rpm from RH as mentioned and a tarball
of openssl (probably could have gotten RH rpm) for it as well.
Also tarball installed freetds to get mssql native access from php to a
Win2K with SQL 8 server on the intranet. Initial tests show the
php-mssql functions to be available. Seems to be a neat, easy (with in
reason) way to get inter-platform data in a mixed platform invironment.
