My ultimate interest is development of such systems. I have a little experience with Linux and Apache from a previous job but I want better depth. I came accross this book which is about how those 4 components work together but clearly it's not in the detail that I require. It's called Setting up LAMP by Eric Rosebrock and Eric Filson. The trouble I'm obviously having is that it takes the reader through setting up each of these systems in a very generic method. But doesn't touch on trouble shooting if things aren't working. I think in real life I would stick to the RPM method of installs as much as possible. I'm not sure that I need the ability to perform all that customization but it is nice to see it in action. I suppose what I could do is install Apache 2 with the RPM's and look at it's configuration that way, probably wouldn't interfer with my 1.3 version. Does the RPM install with SSL enabled? Thanks, Linn
