I've got slightly newer self-rolled mod_perl packages available here too: http://www.openfusion.com.au/mrepo/centos4-i386/RPMS.local/ http://www.openfusion.com.au/mrepo/centos4-x86_64/RPMS.local/ I've got them in production on several boxes, so they're reasonably well tested. You definitely don't want to use the stock 1.99 mod_perl - it was reasonably obsolete when RHEL4 was released, and is positively archaic now.
