</P>
<P><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">After several weeks of experimentation, I'm still at a loss as to which is the best Linux flavour to install Wifidog on. Can anybody help with this, and if so, do they have a cast iron install document, as I've tried Red Hat 9 and followed the closest install document I could find here: </FONT><A HREF="http://dev.wifidog.org/wiki/doc/install/rhes/auth-server"><U><FONT COLOR="#0000FF" SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">http://dev.wifidog.org/wiki/doc/install/rhes/auth-server</FONT></U></A><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">, but that didn't work. I've tried Fedora Core 5 using the same install document, as I've been unable to find a FC5 specific document, but again I had problems with the install, specifically being unable to complete the install.php requisites such as mcrypt and mhash.</FONT></P>
<P><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">I gave up on Gentoo, and am now trying Ubuntu, which seemed to install fine using this tutorial: </FONT><A HREF="http://66.249.93.104/translate_c?hl=en&sl=fr&u=http://www.gerthoffert.net/wiki/index.php%3Ftitle%3DPortailCaptifWifiDogAuthServeur&prev=/search%3Fq%3Dubuntu%252Bwifidog%252Bauth%252Bserver%26start%3D10%26hl%3Den%26lr%3D%26rls%3DGGGL,GGGL:2006-42,GGGL:en%26sa%3DN"><U><FONT COLOR="#0000FF" SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">http://66.249.93.104/translate_c?hl=en&sl=fr&u=http://www.gerthoffert.net/wiki/index.php%3Ftitle%3DPortailCaptifWifiDogAuthServeur&prev=/search%3Fq%3Dubuntu%252Bwifidog%252Bauth%252Bserver%26start%3D10%26hl%3Den%26lr%3D%26rls%3DGGGL,GGGL:2006-42,GGGL:en%26sa%3DN</FONT></U></A><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Arial"> but yet again, I seem to have fallen at the last hurdle! No matter what I tried I couldn't get install.php to run, I just got a 'Not Found' error when trying to open it through Firefox. </FONT></P>
<P><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">Trying to start Postgresql informed me it wasn't installed, so I attempted to re-install it. However, this was disastrous because there were no compilers installed, so I had to install the build-essentials, but then there were more dependencies missing etc etc… SO FRUSTRATING!!!!!</FONT></P>
<P><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">Can anyone help with a working install document for either FC5 or Ubuntu Edgy Eft 6.10?</FONT>
