Apache PHP

[Iain Stevenson]

For apache:

./configure     --with-layout=config.layout:RedHat \
                --activate-module=src/modules/perl/libperl.a \
                --activate-module=src/modules/php4/libphp4.a \
                --enable-module=so \
                --enable-module=digest \
                --enable-module=ssl

Perl is a bit funny to install to you may choose to omit that for a first 
try.

For php:

./configure     --with-gd \
                --with-imap=/build/imap-2000c \
                --with-imap-ssl \
                --with-ldap \
                --enable-sockets  \
                --with-mysql=/usr/local/mysql \
                --with-apache=/build/apache_1.3.23 \
                --with-jpeg-dir=/usr \
                --with-png-dir=/usr \
                --with-db2 \
                --with-db3 \
                --with-zlib=/usr \
                --enable-trans-sid \
                --with-mm

Again, you may not need all these options.  Note the specification of the 
apache source directory.  imap is a bit fiddly to comile in so leave it our 
if you don't need it.
