Steve,

	Than you very much.  I did have a standard installation from cds that 
I purchased from RedHat.  I have done all upgrades as they became 
available.

	The missing link was "Include conf.d/*.conf" in 
/etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf.  I also
had the "LoadModule php4_module modules/libphp4.so" in the httpd.conf 
file.

	php is working on our web pages.

	Thank you again.
