Tom,

I've had no trouble with Red Hat packages and Apache or mod_perl in
the past.. but last time I did that, RH9 was just out. I can recommend
the following installation plan for Apache. It always worked for me,
on various linux dists.

http://www.delouw.ch/linux/apache.phtml

There is also a XAMPP version for Linux.. XAMPP is pretty much a
prepackaged apache + goodies. Good for a quick start (but I personally
stick to official packages or compiling from source).

HTH

Hendrik
