I have couple of questions always bothering me when I am working with linux. I am currently working on RHEL 4.0 and cent os 4.0.. my questions are.

how to install apache, php, mysql and gd library.. (all latest version.. as per my knoweldge, we can simply install apache. mysql while installing linux, if we do so, how could we compile php with mysql... ? (but these versions are old that comes up with the disto)..

if I go to php.net and download latest php 5 and same from apache and mysql, ( i hope all these are source codes not rpm. how can we compile all these... could you please start from scratch as I am new to this....
at the end, i need to see all these in the phpinfo() file...

I hope i made my self clear.....
