That totally helps..I got usemod-wiki installed pretty quickly.  I like it a
lot.  I'm also wanting to try miniwiki.  Maybe you can help me with an
install question.

I did as the README in /usr/share/doc/libapache-miniwiki-perl says to do.  I
have this:

  <Location /wiki>
    PerlAddVar datadir "/home/mdg/db/wiki/"
    PerlAddVar vroot "/wiki"
    SetHandler perl-script
    PerlHandler Apache::MiniWiki
  </Location>

in my httpd.conf in between the perl module <IfModule mod_perl.c> tags.

I've also added to my /home/mdg/db/wiki/ folder, all 4 *,v files from the
/usr/sare/doc/libapache-miniwiki-perl/examples dir.

So...what now?  Basically, the doc say something like "and after that,
restart apache, and you're all set."  But, how do I start it up?  I read
something like...if you want to edit the template, go to
www.yourhost.com/<yourwikivroot>/(edit)/template.  I tried that with my host
and my root, and I got 404's.  So, mine looked like
www.myhost.org/wiki/(edit)/template.

should something like that work?  or am I missing something here?

thanks for any input.
