Mandrake Linux 9.1 test PC

I've been in IT for quite a few years. Mostly Windows and HPUX servers.

I've been meaning to get up to speed with Apache , PHP and MySQL for a long time. This just seems like something an IT guy should know. I finally set up an old clunker PC with Mandrake. I've installed various Linux distro's over the years. I get so far and then get distracted, then I have to relearn everything when I get back. I'll keep notes as I go along this time around. It'll help me remember things & ya' never know, maybe it'll help somebody else.

Determining the versions - cat /proc/version
Linux 2.4.21-0.13mdksmp
GCC 3.2.2
Mandrake 9.1  3.2.2-3mdk
