Actually my description is a bit inaccurate, it is only a clone of the Apache module that comes with the Microsoft Frontpage server extensions. The rest of the MFSE are still required, and they are of course non-free. Also, I should note that there are some security issues with 1.5.1 and that I will either be backporting some fixes from the Mandrake fork of the software, or packaging that fork instead. -- JEREMY MALCOLM <Jeremy@Malcolm.wattle.id.au> http://malcolm.wattle.id.au Providing online networks of Australian lawyers (http://www.ilaw.com.au) and Linux experts (http://www.linuxconsultants.com.au) for instant help!
