help recompiling php

hey all, i'm new to linux and hosting and everything so I need help recompiling php on our server. I need to have PHP recompiled with gettext. I asked around in other forums and so far this is what i think im supposed to do:

I used the phpinfo() function to find out what configure command was used to setup my current php installation. So I need to use that same command but add '--with-gettext' to the end of that.

Does that sound right so far? What i'm wondering is if I need to download any sources or does gettext come with the basic php source. Also, I'm not really sure where php is located on my server, how would I go about finding out? Thanks in advance!
