Alternative PHP Cache (APC)

I need to install Alternative PHP Cache (APC), but I do not know enough to do it myself, for fear of screwing the server up.
Can anybody show me a step-by-step tutorial on how to install it on my server?
Thanks in advance

I do not have an official guide to provide you other than what is on the PHP site. Maybe another member has a better guide that would help you install this:

@redneckg33k You can install it via the Cpanel/WHM EasyApache script if you have Cpanel (I think plesk has a similar option), or if you don’t have a control panel, you can use PECL to install it. SSH into your system and obtain root privileges, and then run the command:
pecl install apc
This will ask you a few questions (like if you are running Apache and want to use AXPS to load apc as a module) – Answer yes if you are running Apache.
After install you can look here for more information about APC and its functions:
