It has all the information there and links to even more discussions. Learn to use Google. You cannot expect people on the list to do all your homework for you. You have to learn this stuff and then ask questions about the parts you have trouble with. This stuff is already written up. We should not have to write it all again. FreeBSD is a BSD family UNIX. Now look up what that means. > And what bit do you recommend and i have a external hard drive also for > that pc and this one for more storage ???? Huh - what bit??? > > Do i need to install apache and PHP and tomcat plus Ajax + pythan > Only if you need them. I have never had need for tomcat or python or Ajax, but use Apache httpd web server a lot and some PHP. You need to think out what you are doing, study up on it and then do some experimenting. Since you plan to wipe that W98 machine and start over on it, then you can easily read and experiment and restart several times without any loss. Then you can learn it well. Have fun, ////jerry
