Memcached and MediaWiki

[Anderson Schulle]

Danke, Moritz.

The package based system was something I didn't know about. The only
thing I know, is that I downloaded the following
http://www.danga.com/memcached/dist/memcached-1.2.0.tar.gz from the
website.

I did look up some info on what you mentioned, but since I haven't
worked with any of those packages yet, I don't know which route to go.
If I understand you right, I'd download one of those packages, upload
them to my server, and then....?

Thanks,

Anderson

On a package based system (I use debian) just installing the
memcached-package 
should be enough to set up memcached. To set up MediaWiki with memcached

there is (AFAIR) a form in the web-based MediaWiki-setup where the
memcached 
server (ip and port) can be entered ...
