Thanks for your previous input.
I compiled HTTPD on RHEL5 and attempted to use on RHEL6 given the lowest glibc and kernel version restrictions. However, I got an error on RHEL6 because libexpat was not found. It turns out that RHEL5 has libexpat by default and RHEL6 does not. I think it supports python and yum. In any case I was able to successfully build HTTPD on RHEL5 to run on RHEL6 by using an 'undocumented' compile flag '--with-expat=builtin'. This brings up the question of what other issues one might run into when compiling on one system to be used on another. Is there not a very generic compile procedure or is it simply the best practice to compile each package on the target system? I'm trying to avoid maintaining several different build servers if possible.
