Linux & Misterhouse question

[Robin Edwards <robin@xxxxxxx>]

Folks,
Having managed to get Misterhouse working under W98 I've
decided to move on.  I've installed Mandrake so now I'm back to asking for
help, this time more basic I suspect.  At least once I get thru this bit
all my config hopefully will work.  I have a couple of basic questions that
are probably Linux rather than mh related.... can somebody help please ....

1: How do I get mh started as a task that runs not attached to a terminal
session?
2: Why is it that I can only get mh to run from root? .... I've installed
it
in /usr/local/misterhouse ....  from the tar....gz file
3: I get an error about DB_File.pm not being available .... well Idid until
just now an for no reason it stopped coming out.
4: I cant get to it from localhost:8080 .... I get an html error about ia2
...
I can see the directory structure for ia2 in /web .... looks similar to the
version under windows.

The annoying thing is ... until I put my override parms in and the files
I have created it worked.  I suspect alot of the above is as a result of
not understanding Linux..... apologies if the questions are trivial, but
its
been a long week of evenings going from w98 to linux with lots of hassle
>from
some advice

regards, robin
