I got them working on my laptop running SuSE 6.3. No bugs, but I can
think of a couple of improvements.

1. Put midgard-project.php3 somewhere other than /usr/lib/apache.
Ideally, scan /etc/httpd/httpd.conf for the line showing the top of the
Apache document tree, then put midgard-project.php3 in ../midgard
relative to that location.

2. Even better, write an install script for midgard-data, that copies the
sample images under that directory, writes to the end of httpd.conf the
lines needed for a simple, port based, Midgard set-up, and updates the
mysql and midgard databases according to these values. Ideally, get the
port numbers, IP addresses and machine names interactively from the user.

It took me quite some time to work out that I needed to turn
CanonicalNames On, then set up matching port numbers in three places in
httpd.conf, and also in the midgard database.
