The best use for aphid is as a quick facility for getting an SSL-ready Apache server and complete Perl environment under a specific directory, staying out of the way of the host machine's existing system files and environment. Note that mod_perl and mod_ssl are both compiled statically into the resulting httpd binary. To date Aphid has been tested on Rehat Linux 6 and 6.2, FreeBSD 4.0, and Solaris 2.6 and 7. CHANGES: 0.13a 08/14/2001 Removed dependencies on the RSARef library. Fixed blank lines with spaces slipping by the host queue regex. Corrected numbering error in log message when a remote file has to be requeued for HTTP download. Changed install to write its log in the same directory from which it's invoked (instead of under /lib/install). Numerous third-party releases brought up to date with the currently released stable version. Edited the documentation. Thanks. -Pete Thomas ----- End forwarded message ----- -- DEBIAN NEWBIE TIP #79 from Joost Kooij <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> : When using a display manager (xdm, kdm, gdm) are your SHELL DEFAULTS IGNORED IN X? Put . ~/.bashrc into your ~/.bash_profile so that new logins get noy only the login environment but also the shell environment; and add . ~/.bash_profile into your ~/.xsession, which makes sure that the X session gets a login environment.
