Hmmm, ok I thought I was installing Pear packages. How can I tell which are PECL, or otherwise something else? Thanks! :) Jim

if you get "cannot create build dir" it's a pecl package. Before you install, use pear remote-info, or browse pear.php.net/pecl.php.net for the package name. For instance, try http://pear.php.net/zip, and compare to http://pear.php.net/PEAR If you get a blue screen, it's PECL, green, it's PEAR. Greg
