In the end, I adopted the path of least resistance and simply installed the SuSE rpms (although I wouldn't recommend this on RedHat or Mandy!) and everything worked out of the crate. I'd advise you delete what you've installed and just grab the relevant rpms from Mandrake or RedHat's site (or off the CD). The important thing is not that they match the version numbers in the book correctly, but that they are appropriate to your version of Mandrake. Be aware that the RedHat rpm for MySQL was faulty (maybe they've fixed it now): you need to either compile that with no dependencies (see man rpm for details) or grab the rpm from the MySQL site. Let us know how you get on. -- ****************************************************************************** Marx: "Why do Anarchists only drink herbal tea?"
