[Moodle] moodle in ubuntu 7.04

[WEIR Andrew]

Just thought I'd publicly take time to thank the list for help.
I managed to get my moodle install running on my test server. It also
work both internal and external (have had issues with the modem blocking
the external domain)

So thanks for the help now it's time to have fun running it
