I just ran across (on comp.os.linux.announce) an allegedly neat web-based 
configuration tool for leafnode, called leafwa. It is a collection of web 
pages and shell scripts. 

Installing this should be fairly straightforward, but I can't get my browser 
to see the pages.

The directions seem simple enough - basically one has to enable php3, which I 
did by commenting out the appropriate line in /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf, and 
then restarting httpd. It then says to determine the httpd 'root' directory, 
which appears to be /var/www, since in that directory are found pages that 
get loaded when I point Netscape to http://localhost . However, the server 
root is specified as /etc/httpd, according to the httpd configure file.

The documentation says to make a symbolic link to the real location of the 
leafwa package (currently sitting in my home directory) in this root 
directory. However, when I do so, I cannot bring up the pages. I've tried 
putting links in /var/www/html, /var/www, and /etc/httpd, all to no avail.

PS. Are there any leafnode users here? I'm running it but find that it wants 
to slog a bunch of alt.binaries groups despite the fact I never subscribed to 
them. Needless to say, the load is swamping my available disk space for 
/var/spool/news and my (DSL) bandwidth.
