You'll probably be better off not running your own compiled versions of PHP. If you've got RHEL5 and a current subscription, why don't you try the 'php53' packages? It provides PHP 5.3.3 and is part of RHEL5, so you get security updates and API stability. -- Jonathan Billings <jsbillin@xxxxxxxxx> College of Engineering - CAEN - Unix and Linux Support -- redhat-list mailing list unsubscribe mailto:redhat-list-request@xxxxxxxxxx?subject=unsubscribe https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
