RE: [PHP] looking for some software (helpdesk, intranet)

I came across this site recently. Look like a good resource for intranet ideas. http://www.intranetjournal.com They recently did a quick review of a couple open source content management systems. XOOPS was one that looks kinda cool. User accounts (and permissions), forums, link gallery, news, comments and i don't know what else. But you might try it (or one another "portal" system). http://www.xoops.org Let me know if you find anyhting. I'm setting up a "trial" intranet - so far i've installed: MovableType (blog) www.movabletype.org WikiTikiTavi (wiki) http://tavi.sourceforge.net/WikiTikiTavi InvisionBoard (forums) http://www.invisionboard.com Probably will try out XOOPS or something like that as well. olinux --- "Chris W.
