Squirrelmail installation suggestions needed for virtual host install

Hi folks,

I just recently acquired a virtual dedicated server from GoDaddy. It's running Fedora 7 and if my memory serves me correctly, I believe that the default webmail client that the Plesk install has on it is Horde...and my clients and I all despise Horde.

I would like to install squirrelmail on this server as the default webmail system for the server, but am not entirely sure if the install instructions I am following will do this for me without any problems.

The system already has Apache, PHP & IMAP running on it.

I am attempting to install squirrelmail from this site's instructions;
http://www.squirrelmail.org/docs/admin/admin-3.html#ss3.2

Using section 3.2. Would anyone see any reason why this would fail?

hi edster,

Thank you for that response. I'll try working with this and see what it does, I guess.
I will be back to either provide feedback or award the points based on the outcome.

ifreg, what you offered shed some light on something I was a tad embarrassed to admit. I am quite new to Fedora and most of my *nix experience came in the FreeBSD arena. So, I was trying to figure out how to properly use the rpm system as well as the yum manager.

That was a great help and will be definitely making numerous references back to your answer for future installations of this and other packages also.

Thank you :)
Adrian, thats is good to hear.  I wish you lot of luck in the mysterious world of Fedora Core. Im sure we will meet again on some other *nix related matter :-)
