>Hi all,
>
>Thanks much for your assistance in getting Squeak/PWS/Comanche up and running.
> Once past the initial hurdles, a lot has come more quickly and easily.
>
>I do have a few questions that I would appreciate your feedback on...
>
>1) I noticed at swiki.net that they had implemented the ability for
>administrators to "roll back" pages to a previous version, i.e. replacing the
>current version with an older one. Is this custom-built functionality, or is
>it part of an admin package that I did not download?
>
>2) Could someone give me a basic tutorial of where files are located on the
>server relevant to a given swiki? Essentially, I'm interested in how I might
>automate a nightly archive solution - what directories do I need to save, do I
>need to do anything in particular to restore? I had thought I could just copy
>and restore the files in the "swikiname" directory, where the pages, rendered,
>and upload directories are, but when I tried copying and restoring, it wasn't
>very successful -- I assume that there's more information stored somewhere
>that I neglected to copy over. Or is it necessary to stop the server while
>restoring?
>
>3) Does the Comanche Swiki run headless as well? I've seen instructions for
>getting the PWS going in a headless run of Squeak on a Linux machine, and was
>wondering if anyone has successfully done this with a Comanche version.
>Ideally, we wouldn't need to start up X to get our server up and running in
>the event of failure.
>
>4) Any suggestions on how to begin customizing the Swiki's functionality?
>Once I become literate in Squeak, is it fairly easy to begin playing around
>with the Comanche/Swiki code to tweak things? Here are some things that I've
>thought would be nice:
> * configuring look/feel beyond the existing templates
> * admin tools to quickly save/restore pages and/or entire swikis
>
>Many thanks,
