Ok.  I installed Apache to act as an 'Intranet' server.  I'm trying to
install one of two (actually both) programs that need to have part of
their installation through a web browser. One is 'DaDaBIK' (Databases
Interfaces Kreator) the other is 'PHPmyadmin'.  I know apache is
installed, so now I get the 404 error on the files that are where the
instructions say to put them. So I'm now this far along.  Ideas to help
the frustrated are welcome. Thanks
