[e-smith-devinfo] [BETA] Apache Replacment Indexer RPM and HowTO

[Greg J. Zartman]

Crew,

I've been working on a centralize file repository/library for my shop for about a of weeks now. As part of this process I converted the Lophty Directory Indexer to perl and configured it to operate as a drop-in replacement for the apache indexer (I also added a few enhancements).

Package can be found here:
www.leiinc.com/downloads/gjz-indexer-0.0.1-1.noarch.rpm

Howto can be found here:
www.leiinc.com/downloads/indexerHowto.htm

I'd really like to get folks feedback with respect to a few things:
1. Any security issue.
2. I create two template fragments for httpd: one to define a directory alias and another to add to the DirectoryIndex parameter. The fragment that I created for the DirectoryIndex parameter looks a little "slap dash," but I'm not really sure how else to do it. Comments and/or suggestions would be appreciated.
3. My rpm restarts the httpd deamon use the command: /etc/rc.d/init.d/httpd graceful. Is this the correct way to be restarting httpd?

Comments would be greatly appreciated.

I'm going to be working towards rolling this into something like the webshare project and later a collaboration app (e.g., twiggi).

Regards,
