Hello,

Just some quick ideas before I go.  Maybe someone can help more.

What are the include errors?

Do you have any need for phplib other than with phpSlash?  If not, I 
suggest not trying to change any path settings and follow the "Quick 
Install".

As you noticed phplib is preinstalled in the current release.  There 
is no other configuration of phplib required for phpSlash.

The local4.inc, etc use php4 sessions.
