You're welcome.
mmm.. one question.. if i want to move my website to a dedicated root server.. how do i move lisp server to it also? i have full root access via SSH.. wat do you need to remotely install lisp stuff on to the root server?
If you have ssh access you do the same thing as if you had a terminal window open on your desktop machine (assuming this is Linux or some Unix variant).
How you actually install your Lisp depends on the specific compiler and the OS. On Debian in most cases you can install the Lisp compiler itself and most of the libraries with apt-get (from the "testing" branch). On Gentoo it's something similar, I think it's called 'emerge.' On other Linux distributions or on, say, FreeBSD it depends. For CMUCL, for example, you download (with, say, wget) the correct tarball from the CMUCL website and untar it in /usr/local - that should be it.
To install mod_lisp you can again use apt-get if you're on Debian (and probably emerge on Gentoo) - or you follow the instructions on the TBNL website to install it manually with apxs.
For the libraries - if you don't get them via apt-get or emerge you might want to try ASDF-INSTALL. A tutorial can be found here:
Does that help?
