Easy fix, despite the official line from PHP which says you need to recompile PHP –with-mcrypt.

I’ll caveat this by stating I’m using Fedora Core 7…

1) At the terminal, su root - you are now going to yum, not ./configure, make, and make install…

2) yum install mcrypt - this will get you libmcrypt, mhash, and mcrypt

3) yum install php-mcrypt - this will get you the functionality within PHP

Uh…done (without hassles).
