So for doing that on using Fedora, you have, as far as i can tell, to install many pieces of software like cherrypy3, simplejson and so on, from their sources (or perhaps using the Dag repository, etc.). Our case is pretty interesting. Our home-made application is based on RHEL 3. We are migrating our client part to either RHEL 5.x or Centos 5.2. But fred-client is extremely easy to migrate. The only thing you need is Python 2.4-2.6. For our client part, using FRED is a breeze. Thus, what we need for using FRED is to have the backend, which we are basing in 8.04, used by the CZ folks as their development platform (very proper, 8.04 is a LTS release). So we wiil have RHEL 5.2+Tomcat as the client (using our web interface) and Ubuntu 8.04+FRED as the backend. I agree, FRED is a truly commendable piece of work, a fantastic task, well developed. I have to congratulate the NIC-CZ people. I hope that my notes contribute to make easier to install and use it. Best regards.

Hello, May I add thanks for a great piece of work. I had no issues installing on Fedora 8 & 9 using the Fred rpms. The best/quickest way to resolve dependencies to to first load the fred- repo rpm and then simply use yum: localhost $ yum -y install fred-* This efficiently downloads and installs all necessary Fred rpms and dependencies. The only gotcha I found was changing the order that services are started from the default, to the order specified in the Fred docs. We will soon be implementing Fred for the .co.zw zone ! Kind regards to all. Troy On 19 May,09, at 3:38 PM, Jaromír Talíř wrote:
