[freeside] Install Hints (i.e. finding MailTools)

[Mike]

Here is the complete list of modules I installed to get Freeside
working.....In the order I installed them to get them to work.
MLDBM & MLDBM::Sync IS needed for Apache::ASP.
Some of the modules do have different names in the CPAN search list.
Just go to http://search.cpan.org/ and do a search for the module name (such
as MailTools).
The link to download the MailTools is:-
http://search.cpan.org/CPAN/authors/id/M/MA/MARKOV/MailTools-1.58.tar.gz
I HAD hand written a fairly complete how-to as I was installing
Freeside...But my daughter decided to get a pen to the paper. I'll see if I
can find the remians of it and try to re-write it, & submit it if someone
would like to use it.
I was using the RedHat Linux 8.0 installation, Apache 2 rpms  for the
server.

Have a great day,
Mike
