Hello all, i am new here, and i am really interested in using Links 2. However, i am not too good with Perl or PHP, and the readme file has helped me to a certain point, but the rest of it seems like Japanese.

This part is where i get lost, and go a different way, i don't get it. Shamelful to say but it is the truth. I hope someone here can take some of their valuable time of the day to explain this for me, thank you very much, and i will appreciate some kind of help.

4. Edit links.cfg and set as a minimum:

- PATH to your admin directory, this is a system path, not a URL! If you
get an error message about not finding a file, look at the SCRIPT_FILENAME
variable for clues on the proper path!
$db_script_path = "/alex/links/cgi-bin/admin";
- URL to your admin directory. This should start with 'http://'.
$db_dir_url = "http://localhost/links/cgi-bin/admin";
- URL of where your user cgi is kept. If you kept the default installation,
it will just be one level below the admin directory.
$db_cgi_url = "http://localhost/links/cgi-bin";
- PATH to where your pages are built. This should be a system path, not a URL.
$build_root_path = "/alex/links/pages";
- URL of where your pages are.
$build_root_url = "http://localhost/links/pages";

- Set one of either:
$db_mail_path = ''; $db_smtp_server = '';
If you are on NT, set $db_smtp_server to your SMTP server. If you are on UNIX,
set $db_mail_path to your sendmail program.
- Set the email address for who all emails will come from:
$db_admin_email = '';



I get lost on that part.
