No. I've had php3 running as both, anyways... It does require some work on the httpd.conf file. You have to set the directives properly for the directory containing the php dependant upon wether you want cgi to handle it or php to handle it. I have to ask, though, why would you want to run it as a cgi? Its slower as cgi and runs more security risks. I'd only run it as a cgi if that was my only choice. It works very well as a DSO, I believe you can only use the Zend Optimizer if its built as a DSO (I could be wrong on that)- I can't think of why you want to. > > colin olkowski - frodo@interport.net > > -- > PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) > To unsubscribe, e-mail: php-general-unsubscribe@lists.php.net > For additional commands, e-mail: php-general-help@lists.php.net > To contact the list administrators, e-mail: php-list-admin@lists.php.net -- -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- Michael A.
