Well, you're already running Linux, so that's covered. $ apt-cache search apache apache - versatile, high-performance HTTP server ... $ apt-cache search mysql ... mysql-client - mysql database client binaries ... mysql-server - mysql database server binaries ... $ apt-cache search php ... php4 - server-side, HTML-embedded scripting language (meta-package) ... Granted, each of those searches returned a ton of packages that you unfortunately have to sift through manually to find the relevant one(s)[1], but all the pieces are there, just not wrapped into a single package named "LAMP". (Why? Because some of us prefer PostgreSQL or another database over MySQL and/or Perl, Python, or Ruby over PHP.) [1] Is there a switch I'm not aware of that causes a search for, say, php to return just the actual php packages (i.e., php3 and php4) instead of all the hundreds of phpgroupware-* and other packages that use php? -- Windows Vista must be the first OS in history to have error codes for things like "display quality too high" - Peter Gutmann, "A Cost Analysis of Windows Vista Content Protection" http://www.cs.auckland.ac.nz/~pgut001/pubs/vista_cost.html -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
