Vincent: While you are at it, can you look at mod_frontpage? It believe it
is broken in cooker and 8.1 which probably means it does not work with
apache-1.3.20-3.

I followed the instructions in
http://localhost/addon-modules/mod_frontpage.html for installing
mod_frontpage. The installation will abort after entering the unix group.
I have tried google, MS, deja, Mandrake paid support, cooker mailing list
and have not figured it out. Any help you could provide would be
appreciated as I would assume that others will have the same problem.

I am using 8.1 RC1 from Mandrake which has apache-1.3.20-3mdk and
mod_frontpage-1.5.1mdk-4mdk.

Here are the parameters and the result:
Please enter command: 1) install

  Please enter server type: 1) apache-fp

  Enter server config filename: /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf

  Enter host name for multi-hosting []:

  Enter UNIX username []: gerry

  Enter UNIX group []: fpwebadmin
  Web server configuration problem: document root missing from configuration
file.
