Greetings,
I finally got the Frontpage Server Extensions v1.2 onto my linux box (FC3) running apache2.0.52. Joshie's how-to was quite helpful for this (especially the part about loading httpd-devel). Now I'm trying to administer the extensions via the web (http://localhost:8090). On my linux box, I am able to get in after providing user/password, but the images are missing and whenever I put in some values and click 'submit', my browser (firefox) tries to save the URL as an executable.
This last part: John Spencer may have some relevant information @ http://www.johnspencer.info/LinuxTutorials/Red_Hat_FPSE/ FPSE2002onRedHat9.html#Adding%20FrontPage%20Users%20from%20Mozilla%20on% 20the%20Local%20Host
I couldn't figure anyway to change the default behavior, so I gave up on the trying to administer from the linux side. Next, I tried to administer the page from my windows machine which sits on the local network. When I put in my local admin page address: http:192.168.0.2:8090/ I get a page not found error. Using the outside world address also doesn't work.
Hmmmm...
I carefully followed Timothy Stone's thread back in December '04, since it seemed relevant. AllowOverride is set to All, my log directory is set to 755, and everything else about the FPSE install seemed okay. So what should I check next? Do I need to open a port in my firewall for port 8090, or does it go in on port 80?
You will need a port open on 8090 (or xxxx port as configured) to admin the extensions/permissions.
Has anyone found a way to do the adminstration locally on the linux box with an available linux browser? Is it possible to just do the basic set up by command line then not touch it again? If so, what do I need to do to set up a simple web for one user using the ~username type path (my web is in /home/vigh/public_html).
I pretty much ended up setting the administrator at the command line and just barely touched it afterwards. I have had success admining from a Mac OS X Panther PowerBook for more than a month, when I have to admin it. But if I've had to do anything, it's tweak my httpd.conf here and there, mainly related to security, not to admin.
Thanks for any help!
