Hmm, that's not good. It should have been an easily-reproducable thing. I know it is here.

Well, JM Dault's RPMs for it and Apache 1.3.12 worked great unmodified. I understand there is a new 2002 version of the FP extensions out now.

The problem with any 8.0 stuff is you guys use the new RPM v. 4 to build all this stuff, which doesn't work with 7.1. Has there been any upgrade for RPM for 7.1? If so, I've missed it. It would be REALLY helpful!

Well, that doesn't really say anything. The key is to see if you can FP Publish a page - that seems to break things quick if they aren't working.

One more note on Apache - is there a way to disable that string:
  Apache-AdvancedExtranetServer/1.3.22 (Mandrake Linux/1.1mdk) FrontPage/4.0.4.3 mod_ssl/2.8.5 OpenSSL/0.9.6b
> mod_gzip/1.3.19.1a PHP/4.0.6

Some people (including me) think that giving that kind of info out to anyone is a security risk.
