Newbie python MapServer question

[Fawcett, David]

John, 
 
An easy way to get Python MapScript is to install FW Tools.  There is a
Linux installer.  
 
Plus, with FWTools, you get OGR and GDAL.

	The standard cry for help.  I am interested in using MapServer
with Python.   I see there are examples of Python scripts but do I need
to build Map server a special way or install a separate Python module
(import mapscript) ?   From what I understand MapServer is being used in
my office by some others using Perl but I can not get a hold of them to
find out more.   I have Python 2.4 installed on a Linux system and I use
it, but not sure how to hook into MapServer.
	 
	Any help would be appreciated.
	 
	Thanks,
