On the development box I have put together these instructions from my compilation on FC2. They may need a little tweaking for the new versions of the packages however if you are comfortable with these packages listed this will work fine. ________________________________ From: fedora-list-bounces@xxxxxxxxxx on behalf of Peter Borcherds Sent: Thu 10/7/2004 6:03 AM To: fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx Subject: Fedora, Apache & PHP Hi all, I'm busy downloading the Fedora ISO's - my plan is to use a spare PC as a server for my web development, as well as a Media Server. What I am planning to do is to use a drive caddy with one HDD with XP Pro, running IIS5.1 and MS SQL Server 2000, for local development & testing of ASP coded websites, and another HDD with Fedora, running Apache and mySQL Server, for local development & testing of PHP coded websites. My plan for a Media Server is the following: http://www.extremetech.com/article2/0,1558,1626400,00.asp Now...my questions... Where is the best place to find out information on setting up a PC as a development server - somewhere that lists the programs needed and how to configure them. I am running a wireless network, although I might hardwire the server to the router for more stability. Anyone have any useful sites or tips they could send me? Bear in mind that I am a Linux newbie (although I did experiment with RedHat 8 a while back), but am experienced with computers as I also provide IT support for my clients (from fixing PC problems to building new PC's). Thanks, Peter
