Fighting NATs and firewalls

Trying to get apache and PHP5 up on home machine to host some baby facebook applications. packard runs Fedora Core 3 which has PHP4 - too old, too hard to update. Jensen is running Fedora Core 5 which has PHP 5.1 - start there. In meantime, work on bringing up CentOS 4.5 on edsel. Then use yum to update its PHP 4 to PHP 5.1 as follows:
yum --enablerepos=centosplus update php*. Still need to bring up mysql on edsel.

After much strife, got "Hal's Test Application 1" to work. FIOS seems to block port 80 so I'm running on port 5080 on digimojo.dyndns.org. Gotta love dyndns.
