I have a site on my other browser that is called www.pathname.com/fhs etc... this page is basically providing information on the fileheirarchy.. and it states that you should not place any binaries in etc.. (which I am not following to well.. it is saying to place packages in /ect/opt/package which i am not following either.. do I just place the install package in /etc/opt or the whole .tgz package. including all the readmes and so on.. if you could give a brief decription of how I should go about installing a package on my system in /etc/opt since I have been able to download them but they don't seem to work.
thanx moxxx68
