Hello,

I'm not a php coder, but a web designer who manages a co-located server
remotely. The server runs an older Plesk 6 GUI for hosting domains
which uses an older form of PHP (4.2.2). I'm not sure if this older
version of PHP is an issue of the Plesk install or a root server issue
that I can address seperately. The server is a Linux-based server, and
I do have command-line access to the server root via a utility called
"putty". I have never used it before; the closest thing I may have done
is issue command-line directives in old dos-based computers.

Can anyone advise me on how I would install PHP 5.2 on this server?

ON THE php website, they offer "windows binaries". I am on a windows
machine, but the server I manage remotely is Linux; are these binaries
the ones I use?

If anyone could point me to any help for this problem it would be much
appreciated...

Gary
