I have FreeBSD 2.2.6 running on a Pentium 75 system with 32=20
Meg RAM. I am still a newbie to FreeBSD and need a little extra=20
assistance with loading Apache Web Server. I am downloading the=20
files apache_1.3b6.tar.Z, and apache_1.3b6.tar.gz from 'ftp.apache.org'. =
=20
In addition I found the FreeBSD 2.2 related copies under the ./binaries=20
folder and thought better get these also just in case. These two files =
are:
=20
apache_1.2.5-i386-whatever-freebsd-2.2.tar.Z
apache_1.2.5-i386-whatever-freebsd-2.2.tar.gz
=20
It's obvious one is the beta version 1.3.6 and the other the release =
version=20
1.2.5. So, can someone tell me, in very simple, newbie terms now, how I=20
go about using these files to setup my FreeBSD box as an Apache server?
=20
I was actually looking for files with only the .tar extension. What is =
the .Z on=20
the end of the files mean? What's the difference between *.tar, *.tar.Z =
and *.tar.gz?
Why do I ask so many newbie questions? Because I'm still a newbie! =
Thanks in=20
advance for any help offered.
