Check out yourself - http://auth.ntek.tk and from there obiviously 
registration. For some reason I cannot get imagepng working either, but 
I'm checking into that right now.

When it comes to installation issues in general, if mailing list is not 
the place, perhaps someplace there should be a wiki with installation 
instructions for various systems? At current openid server is ... pain 
to get working properly ;) If I can get this one solved, I will write 
cookbook instructions for Debian :-D
