I'm using Cherokee - and I seem to have the basically working but I cant get php to work. I've tried the instructions at http://tech.groups.yahoo.com/group/nslu2-linux/message/21403 and my browser downloads the php file instead of running. Anyone have any suggestions to get php to work on this machine?
