looking at there examples i think i need to install the geoip C api and then the apache geoip api, and then use htaccess to redirect. is this the best way to do it?
also if i use the above, when i want to update maxmind in the future, do i just install it again over the top, to update it, using:
./configure
make
make check
make install
i'm far from an expert with the sort of stuff so any advice appreciated.
thanks

for anyone that is interested, i checked with maxmind and they say that for anyone using static html this is usually the easiest approach. and to update the database just refresh the GeoIP.dat file.
