I am setting up a new server and have installed RH9 on it. I want to
upgrade to the latest 2.6.x kernel and have successfully played with the
compiling it. This server will be running LAMPS,SENDMAIL,SMB and BIND
and have have internal window and Linux clients connecting to it as well
as serving web sites to the internet. My question is, should I setup the
webserver, DB, PHP, mail. SMB and DNS software first and then compile
and install the new kernel or is it best to do the kernel first?

TIA
Paul

Doesn't matter. There's _no_ code sharing between the kernel and
applications.

I went to some problems when I upgraded my RH9 to Fedora Core 2, with
Oracle DB.
Upgrading to Fedora Core 2 installs kernel 2.6.5 and removed my old
kernel 2.4.21. every thing was working perfectly on it.
I am not sure what DB you are installing but if it is oracle, take this
not with you:
once the kernel upgraded, I went through so many problems, simplest was
ORA-27123: unable to attach to shared memory segment.

The solution to this was to
oracle$export $ORACLE_HOME=/my/oracle/home/dir
oracle$export $ORACLE_SID=validsid
oracle$cd $ORACLE_HOME/bin
oracle$ relink all

and then everything went fine.

good luck.
