>Bugzilla is not a package where you can just plop it in a
directory, twiddle a few things, and you're off. Installing Bugzilla
assumes you know your variant of UNIX or Microsoft Windows well, are
familiar with the command line, and are comfortable compiling and
installing a plethora of third-party utilities. To install Bugzilla on
Win32 requires fair Perl proficiency, and if you use a webserver other
than Apache you should be intimately familiar with the security
mechanisms and CGI environment thereof.</P
