+Although this is not how to related to horde, I am posting this here as fileinfo is quite useful and I couldnt get it working for quite some time.
 
+1. Read the /horde/doc/INSTALL
+2. pear install fileinfo-beta will not work on RHEL without the following package.
+3. Get the latest file package from ftp://ftp.gw.com/mirrors/pub/unix/file/
+4. Install it with ./configure --prefix=/usr && make && make install
+5. then
+
+pear install fileinfo-beta
+
+5. Add the following in php.ini
+
+;Magic mime time
+mime_magic.magicfile = "/usr/share/file/magic.mime"
+
+extension=fileinfo.so
+
+;;;;
+; Note: For Red Hat Linux, packaged extension modules are now loaded via
+; the ini files in the directory /etc/php.d.
+;;;;
+
+so also add in /etc/php.d/fileinfo.ini
+extension=fileinfo.so
+
+6. Not sure if we need to do this, but I have done it any way. Add the following in /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf
+
+<IfModule mod_mime_magic.c>
+   MIMEMagicFile /usr/share/file/magic.mime
+#    MIMEMagicFile conf/magic
+</IfModule>
+
+7. restart apache and check horde/test.php. At this point I got MIME Magic Support: Yes
+
+I get the following errors in /var/log/httpd/error_log, not sure how to get rid of them and if it hampers the fileinfo functioning.

+
+Request for anyone who has done the above in a proper way, do share and modify what needs to be done right.
