Simeo & Co, I'd ideally like to have the option of reverting to my original config ..if the new compile fails . Take apache for example : The source is installed in /usr/local/src/apache_1.3.12 The package was installed to /usr/local/apache using ./configure --prefix=/usr/local/apache The /lib and /bin for apache were auto installed under the apache root . Now I want to recompile apache with some diff options. A Linux book i have suggests that i could install the new compile to say .. /usr/local/apache2 and create a symlink /usr/local/apache---> /usr/local/apache2 ..I am not quite sure how to go about it ...Can anyone help ?

... Further, is there anything to be gained in installing *both* PHP3 & PHP4 ... If I install just PHP4 would it recognize the .php3 extension ? Would tthe old scripts still work ?
In teory you can install php3 and php4 if they are installed like modules (see faq of php4).
Yes, you can use the old extension php3 and use php4.
Yes, php4 is 99% compliant with php3
Finally, My programmers want me to install a Java environment for a Chat program we plan to develop for use on our site ? Is there a good PHP based solution to this ? How do Servlets & JSP compare with PHP , performance wise ?
Yes, there is a chat example in www.php.org.
