Yeehaw! Apache, step one complete.:-)

Finally, after beating the hell out of it all afternoon, I can now access the tacube web site, including pproxy stats, on my Linux server from my Windows machines! Now, for many of you, this might not seem like much, but damn I feel good!😀

Next step, figuring out how to make this sucker publicly accessible.

Didn't we tell you that Linux (or any form of Unix) is addicting? Almost worse then the stats. But not that bad. 😛

The really cool thing is that now I can check my stats from multiple machines.😀 I don't have to be on the server. Matter fact, I'm checking them right now from the Windows box I'm on.:Q

Russ - Please be sure that you have the latest version of Apache running and that it is secure from the common attacks that script kiddies use to hack into root under linux/Apache.

I'm not 100% familiar with Apache, but a quick seach of some of my cracker urls found scripts pretty easily.

Congrats, I remember when I first pounded apache into submision.
WOO HOO
I still haven't done the virtual servers yet. :Q

<< Next step, figuring out how to make this sucker publicly accessible >>

There is a little more to it than just apache, aren't you running your whole network through a Linksys router?

You'll need to set that also, to let the general public through to access your apache pages on whatever port you use.

You've come a long way in a little time, Popeye would be proud. 🙂
 
Kilowatt,

Actually, thanks to a diagram provided by one of Two's Engineers, I'll be bypassing the Linksys for the server only, by routing it thru an additional switch. BUT, I still have a long way to go before I get to that point.

You need to stop by the IRC chat more often Russ. Many of us have been helping others learn apache and lots of other items. Virtual domains is FUN. One of the nice things about working at a Large ISP is that I learn all of this stuff very quickly.

Anyway. If you have questions just ask.

Heh... when I setup my machine to dual boot so I could play around with Linux some, Apache setup couldn't have been easier. I clicked to install the web hosting software in Redhat 6.1's setup, and after that was all done I typed me ip into a web browser and viola!

Of course, it'd probably be quite a bit tougher to install and get working if Redhat's setup program hadn't done it all for me 🙂
 
This is where the learning curve from running debian is so nice.

apt-get install apache

and maybe

apt-get install apache-perl

one or two min later your done, it's setup and you get a nice little, this is where everything is located page. 🙂

Engine,

The Apache install itself is easy. It's built it; all you have to do is activate it, connect, and you're in the directory. Correctly setting up the directory structure and permissions outside of the directory where the Apache welcome screen is located is where it gets a little tricky.

Paulson,

You set it up in Windows. Big deal.
