i no longer using raq, i moved to a linux server. i can help you with raq though.
the instruction is posted in the help menue. do everything except the first step if you are using raq3.
good luck

i solved my problem, it turned out i only can build from the root.
is this normal? i was able to build with my virtual host without having access to the root
with raq id id not need root to build

In terms of Linux...yes. In terms of UNIX servers, no. In terms of NT, of course not...you cannot use telnet (well, you could, but there are extremely dangerous security issues with this).
