Google translate didn't do so well with that, Paul. Volunteers?
Volunteers for what?
Volunteers for a Welsh translation -- pls see

Remainder off-list
Best -- Paul
Perhaps I should talk to my Gaelic speaking friends for a better
translation. I'm afraid I failed miserably when I tried to learn it.
Best regards

Hi Fred,
It's 20:45 here now so I'll try out some stuff and reply properly
tomorrow. However I couldn't resist replying to this:

Da iawn! Gallai hynny fod yn ddefnyddiol iawn ar gyfer y llyfrgell sy
gen i mewn golwg. Ond mi fasai'n well gen i ddefnyddio meddalwedd F/OSS
os dwi'n gallu. Oes 'na gyfieithiad i'r Gymraeg ar gyfer Koha? Bydd
rhaid imi edrych. Dylwn i fod wedi gwneud eisoes a dweud y gwir.

So now you know that you managed to hit upon one of the probably very
few Welsh speakers on the list.
:)
Best regards

Note: I think I got most of this right, but corrections from others on
the list are welcome. I know a lot more about Koha than I did five
years ago, but not everything.
Hi Peter,
Welcome to Koha! I hope you'll find it interesting. I'm running Koha in
a small medical library (14,000 or so items including journals, monthly
circulation in the high two figures). I have a test system running on
an old computer, which sounds a lot like what you're looking for. It's
part of our hospital intranet and inaccessible by the outside world.
Here's the relevant part of /etc/koha/koha-sites.conf
## Apache virtual hosts creation variables
#
# Please note that the URLs are built like this:
# OPAC: http://<OPACPREFIX><INSTANCE
NAME><OPACSUFFIX><DOMAIN>:<OPACPORT>
# STAFF: http://<INTRAPREFIX><INSTANCE
NAME><INTRASUFFIX><DOMAIN>:<INTRAPORT>
DOMAIN=".myDNSname.org"
INTRAPORT="8080"
INTRAPREFIX=""
INTRASUFFIX="-intra"
OPACPORT="80"
OPACPREFIX=""
OPACSUFFIX="
I don't have access to our DNS files, so I left the DOMAIN at the
default. The disadvantage of this is that you have to get to Koha by
its IP address (Let's pretend it's 192.168.5.10. Your router can
probably assign static IP addresses.) instead of something easy
(koha-test.org). The advantage is that you don't need to mess around
configuring a domain name. I think you can do it by editing the HOSTS
table on each computer on your network, but I've never gotten around to
trying that.
INTRAPORT is what the config file calls the staff interface. I think
you can give it a name like koha-test.org-intra (that's what
INTRASUFFIX is), but that's another thing I haven't done yet. I found
it a lot simpler just to assign it a port number (8080) and get there
by going to http://192.168.5.10:8080. Port 80 is the HTTP default port,
so the OPACPORT goes there and all you have to type to get there is
http://192.168.5.10.
You also have to make sure the apache server is listening to both
ports. This is what my /etc/apache2/ports.conf file looks like:
# If you just change the port or add more ports here, you will
likely also
# have to change the VirtualHost statement in
# /etc/apache2/sites-enabled/000-default.conf
Listen 80
Listen 8080
<IfModule ssl_module>
Listen 443
</IfModule>
<IfModule mod_gnutls.c>
Listen 443
</IfModule>
# vim: syntax=apache ts=4 sw=4 sts=4 sr noet
You also have to change 000-default.conf, but my setup has three
instances of Koha running on the same box and I don't remember how to
change 000-default.conf in a normal system. If the list or Google can't
help, I can poke around to see if I can figure it out. I think that if
the default apache web page comes up instead of Koha, it's a problem
with 000-default.conf.
That being said, and as much as I hate to say it, Koha isn't for every
library. Most of my colleagues on the medical librarians' list
recommend LibraryThing for small libraries with limited technical and
cataloging skills. It's free for the first 200 books, more for $10 per
year or $25 for life, and available in quite a few languages, including Welsh.

Subject: [Koha] Introduction and questions about defaults configuration
Hi,
I'm a retired librarian interested in some local community library
projects.
To this end I'm interested in being able to suggest Free/OSS library
automation solutions to groups of people who may not normally think
about using IT solutions because they either consider them to be too
costly or too complicated.
So what I'm planning to do is to set up a demonstration system on a
redundant desktop box I've got kicking about the house. This will be a
local system (i.e. will not have contact to the wider network) and so
far I've got as far as installing Debian and Koha (via the Debian
packages). MySQL is also installed.
I do have a couple of questions, if I may.
Having got as far as I mention above, the documentation then talks about
configuring the defaults. There appear to be two: DOMAIN and
INTRASUFFIX. What would I set DOMAIN to, if I wanted other computers on
the local network to connect to Koha. Presumably I could always use
'localhost' for connections from the server itself and the server's NAT
address (192.168.x.x) from other boxes, or have I misunderstood? But a
nice domain name would be more impressive and less scary to the people I
have in mind, so how would I go about setting that?
And finally, what is INTRASUFFIX and what should I set it to? It means
absolutely nothing to me.
Many thanks for any help.
Peter
