Guest TheCatcher Posted November 10, 2004 Report Share Posted November 10, 2004 Hi I'm new to linux and I was trying to set up a apache. I'm running mandrake 10 and apache 2 and I was wandering I what I need to do to actually start apache and then where I need to place my files for the website. Once I get it up and running I think I can pick up from the other posts on here. Thanks in advance, TheCatcher Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
