@COP thanks for dropping by on my site. Regarding the license, I think you can read their FAQ why they are moving to GPL license and using it for profit, I can’t really answer that. As a business, of course you can get wider features on the commercial release.

@COP I think it will work on earlier version as well, but it’s recommended to try the latest release which is the 4.5. They also have the ＲＰＭpackage for CentOS 5.2. To get the files, you can try on this link –> http://sourceforge.net/projects/dimdim/files/Dimdim%20v4.5%20Release/

I believe I’ve found the answer to my question. There release version is 5.5 but the ‘Open Source’ version is 4.5. Why is that? If it’s ‘Open Source’, how are they a full version ahead on the pay version? Are they using gpl software for profit?
Just my thoughts…

Is this only good for version 4.5 of DimDim? I would like to try this and would be happy to share my experiences. I would just like to know if a newer version of the software can be used?
Thank you,

instead of doing this:

d) Soft link the curl
[root@freelinuxtutorials]#ln -s /usr/local/lib/libcurl.so.4 /usr/lib/libcurl.so.4

you should do this (as root):

# echo “/usr/local/lib” > /etc/ld.so.conf.d/local.conf
# ldconfig

which tells the dynamic linker to look in /usr/local/lib for shared libraries.
