Not to rain on your parade, but it seems kinda silly to have a port of
it.  As long as perl and the co-ordinating modules are installed, all
that needs to be done is to extract the zip to /usr/local/assp and run
it from there...


I suppose you could create a package called something like "asspprereqs"
to install the perl base, and all needed modules if your hell bent on
making one.

Subject: [Assp-user] ASSP security, adding to Gentoo Portage

Hello

I would like to ask if someone could help me out with ASSP.  I'm trying
to
add it to Gentoo Portage (package management system) and just don't know
enough perl to figure this out.  I've moved the directory structure to
Gentoo standard.  Dynamic files go in /var/lib/assp and static files
such
as images/css/etc go in /usr/share/assp/.

I'd done some sed work to get this to happen.  However, once running,
the
webserver cannot find the CSS or images.  I noticed you pass just the
filename via the URL.  Changing this to =/etc/passwd in your browser
gives
the password file as well.  This is a security risk and I'd like to ask
if
someone knows how to restrict this to only a hard coded directory. 
Furthermore, how I could set this to be /usr/share/assp instead of the
data directory that gets set to /var/lib/assp.


Thank you for your time.
Greg Watson
