I built 1.0 from source with dsbuild, on my RHEL4 laptop, and it worked for me (tm). The admin console is really fast now with apache, compared to how it performed with the previous backend ns-httpd. I mean to say that it is a major performance improvement. This is the first time IMO that the admin console is actually "usable". I ran into one small hiccup while the admin server was building, where it refused to build with jdk1.5.0. Dropping back to 1.4.2 solved the problem. Actually, I keep both of them in /usr/java, and just move the jdk symlink back and forth as needed. JAVA_HOME is set to /usr/java/jdk. Note that you need httpd and httpd-devel packages on a RHEL/FC machine before 1.0 will build with dsbuild, since apxs is required for building mod_restart. BR, -- mike
