I'm trying to install apache on a RH8 system, no X. just installed the rpm and a few other deps, but have no idea what to do now. Does anyone know a good howto on setting apache up?

path to conf file of apache is:

/etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf

edit the file, make your changes tu reflect your whishes

start the web server:

service httpd start

try now http://hostname

hostname is the name you give in config file at "ServerName"

the html files rezides usualy in /var/www/html/

Good luck

Thanks for the info,but rpm keeps crashing while installing.
Guess it'll be for another time.

from your user info (under distro) your using Debian, just apt-get it.

apt-get install apache

dpkg-reconfigure apache

If your not running a GUI, suggest using the Slackware dist. its more a "hands on" for server/router verses a GUI to help you.
