PEAR Web Installer

Here is a quick tutorial on how to install PEAR's WEB Frontend installer.

1) Shell command: pear install PEAR_Frontend_WEB
2) Create file pear.php in the desired web directory with the following content:
<br /> require 'PEAR.php';<br /> require 'pearfrontendweb.php';<br />
I suggest putting this file in a separate folder with proper web server access permissions (i.e. htaccess, htpasswd etc.)
3) Adjust directory permissions for the PEAR system folders download and temp (on my LINUX system, these are located in /tmp/pear)
4) Adjust directory permissions for the PEAR classes folder (on my LINUX system, these are located in /usr/share/pear)
