Hi,

your how-to's are great, but I really think that you should include installation of zlib-1.2.3 into http://www.howtoforge.com/perfect_setup_fedora_core_3

It is very anoying when ./setup of ISPConfig breaks because of:
configure: error: The installed zlib version may contain a security bug. Please upgrade to 1.2.2 or later: http://www.zlib.net. You can omit this check with --disable-zlib-vcheck but DO NOT REPORT any stability issues then!
ERROR: Could not configure ClamAV

This code works (at least for me):
wget http://www.zlib.net/zlib-1.2.3.tar.gz
tar xvfz zlib-1.2.3.tar.gz
cd zlib-1.2.3
./configure
make test
make install

Well, I wrote the HowTo before this zlib issue came up. It's related to a security hole in zlib that was discovered after I wrote the HowTo, and in the meantime the ClamAV developers have modified the ClamAV sources in a way that it only accepts zlib 1.2.3 or newer...
When I find the time I'll modify the HowTo, but first I have to verify the behaviour you mention...
