One more data point, I originally spent over a month hacking on Fedora
to get it working (and yes, I used Jarod's guide) but I just couldn't
get it to work right. I then found KnoppMyth and had the box up and
fully functioning in about an hour. I now have two backends and a
frontend, all running KnoppMyth.
That is not to say that I didn't have to tweak a few things, but it did
'just work' pretty much out of the box.
