[rt-users] FreedBSD 4.10 and RT 3-3.0.9

[Ron Tyro]

I was able to install the mysql server and the make initialize-database
worked.  I am running RT and mysql on the same host.  That was something
I was interested in as well: can RT talk to a remote database.

Now I need to configure httpd.conf, but I'm not sure what the defaults
are for RT of FreeBSD.  Did it use mod_perl or fastcgi?  Does anybody
know?  Does the RT install create a log file which I can view?

Thanks,
Ron
