No worries, let me know when you are ready. Heck, it might even be available
for public download soon.

Michael,
I have plans of completly redoing our current Ecomm site in PHP and your
Tool sounds like it would be a great fit. I would love to help test it but
won't have the rest of the site available for a few weeks (at least). I'll
try to think about a fuller list of PHP Newsgroups and Sites (there are
*tons* of them). I've found that I can get a faster response from more ppl
for PHP than I ever could from ASP. I'll try to get that list up soonest.

OK, a bit of clarification here, I'm not a beginner. I write Internet apps
for a living, and have been doing so for a few years.

No need to tell me how good PHP is, I already know it rocks. :) I'm just
looking for additional resources, like newsgroups or websites. (Newsgroups
apparently don't exist yet, but someone did post a short list of sites that
are useful, thanks!)

BTW: if anyone here is writing e-com apps in PHP, I've nearly completed a
PHP interface to InterShipper's shipping quote service. (Gets shipping
charges for many different carriers) I'm looking for a couple of people who
can help in testing (it's fully-functional, but needs more/better
error-control and data validation). Info on the module is at
http://www.desertraven.com/phpintershipper.html I haven't posted the module
yet, since I'm still changing it frequently, drop me a note if you want to
test it.

I've been playing with PHP for a while and am currently working on some
classes to use in some database driven projects. It's extremely easy to
learn, especially if you have a rudimentary understanding of
programming. Additionally, resources are actually fairly abundant with
lots of example code to gander at. The PHP site has links to many of
these source repositories. A few books have been published, but I'd read
the customer reviews to get an idea before ordering one. I'd be happy
with a reference book, but have happily made do with the online manual.
Setting it up on your computer takes a few steps, but is fairly
straightforward. I got the latest src.rpms for Apache, MySQL, and PHP -
and edited the PHP spec file to produce a MySQL module (it defaults to
postgresql) and with some very minor tweaking I've got it all up and
runnning on my system first time around. I find it easy to do both
linear and object oriented programming with. I don't know if I'm ready
to abandon Perl, but PHP is quite powerful in it's own right...

Subject: Internet Server Setup
Message-ID: <>

I was wondering if anyone does setups of internet servers.

I need to create a UNIX server with the following configuration.
FTP (Anonymous and password required)
Apache supporting HTML, CGI, Perl, VRML, Java, FrontPage 2000 extensions, Real
Audio
DNS and Bind
Email (sendmail or something else)

I am not picky on the OS... Any Linux flavor or BSD.

I have a client that is interested in this and I am no expert in LINUX/UNIX.
Can someone point me to someone whom can do a professional setup similar to
the one I mentioned above. I am looking to add some UNIX servers to our
network but never have time to do so. So any nudge in the correct direction
would be appriciated.

Thank you,
Gilbert T. Gutierrez, Jr.
