Or it means YOU DO NOT HAVE ROOT. Just because the distributions OFFER the extensions does not mean that users have ACCESS to them. Not everyone has complete control over their boxes, or sysadmins who are willing to update configurations. If the functionality were available as part of core, developers would simply have access, regardless of distribution and permissions. -- Matthew Weier O'Phinney Project Lead | matt...@zend.com Zend Framework | http://framework.zend.com/ PGP key: http://framework.zend.com/zf-matthew-pgp-key.asc -- PHP Internals - PHP Runtime Development Mailing List To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
