+AOLserver README ($Id$)
+
+To compile PHP 4.0 as a module for AOLserver, you need:
+
+- AOLserver 3.0 source distribution
+- installed AOLserver 3.0 
+
+1.) Configuring AOLserver
+
+Read doc/install.txt in the source distribution
+
+It usually boils down to changing the INST path in include/Makefile.global
+and running make all install.
+
+2.) Configuring PHP
+
+$ ./configure \
+	--with-aolserver=/path/to/installed/aolserver \
+	--with-aolserver-src=/path/to/source/distribution \
+	<other options>
+
+3.) Compiling and Installing PHP
+
+$ make install
+
+4.) Changing nsd.tcl
+
+a) New section
+
+Add a new section to pass options to PHP (required):
+
+ns_section "ns/server/${servername}/module/php"
+
+You can use the following commands in this section:
+
+The 'map' command will cause AOLserver to pass all requests to *.php to
+the PHP module (can be specified multiple times).  Example:
+
+ns_param map *.php
+
+The 'php_value "name val"' command assigns the configuration option name 
+the value val (can be used multiple times). Example:
+
+ns_param php_value "session.auto_start 1"
+
+b) Enabling PHP
+
+Then enable the PHP module:
+
+ns_section "ns/server/${servername}/modules"
+...
+ns_param php ${bindir}/libphp4.so
+
+
+=============================================================================
+This has been tested with AOLserver release 3.0.
