You mean, it *is* possible to have 4 and 5 side-by-side with the same apache as modules? I thought I read somewhere that this isn't possible, at least not with the modules, one would need to run one of them as CGI. > > If this is development you can also simply switch back and forth between the > two.

I wanted an easy way to switch back to PHP4/between the two until any problems are sorted out and we can stay on PHP5. Installing/removing the PHP4 or 5 package-set may just provide the same, I agree. Kai -- Kai Schätzl, Berlin, Germany Get your web at Conactive Internet Services: http://www.conactive.com
