Re: debianized slash?

I finally got slash to work on my system at home. Unfortunately it's a
smallish 486 and I think something might be timing out before the mysql
database lookups can finish.

I'm running Potato right now. The hardest part was getting it to run the perl
scripts correctly. My access.conf file was misconfigured.

I think all you need is Apache, MySQL, PHP3 and mod-perl. The instructions
that came with slash are pretty good.
