I
have been using WeBWorK for the past several years, at Dartmouth and
with a course hosted by U. of Rochester. We are now now planning to
implement webwork here at Norwich University. My IT department has
asked if I can find someone who would be willing to help us through the
implementation (I am good at the front end stuff, not the hardware and
operating system end of things). If you have recently installed a
system and would like to pass on your hard-earned knowledge, please let
me know.

I
see that you haven't had any response to this request. It might help if
you could say what type of hardware/operating system combination you
were planning to use. The issues can be very different for different
architectures, so your mentor would need to be familiar with the
platform you will be using.
Most of the hard part is setting up the apache server using mod_perl
and adding in the CPAN modules and the TeX installation. Your IT people
may be familiar with this aspect of the setup in which case getting
WeBWorK running will be pretty easy. There are only a few configuration
lines for WeBWorK itself.
