Re: Blackdot.be (ApacheMon ApacheMobile) - Questions sparked by the ApacheLounge fuss

2007-08-30 Thread Jorge Schrauwen
Mail prc-at-apache.org but not reply yet but I'm in the process of renaming
all the stuff,
If they don't agree with the new name I'll do it again. But I have a few
question.

--- readme.txt extract ---
What is it?
-
HTTP Server On USB is a self contained webserver.
Based on Apache HTTPD Server. It comes with php, mod_ssl, mod_perl and
mod_security.
Simply drop your files into wwwroot, then your good to go!

--- end extract ---

I'd like to add an additional note to this but I'm unsure in how to phrase
it.
What I want to say is:
That I take the source tarball's that are posted e.g.
httpd-2.2.4-win32-src.zip (only official release no TR, svn etc).

I'd also like to knew if I need to add an additional disclaimer that I don't
offer any warranties if somehow (unlikely) manage to cost a company huge
sums of money and they want to sue me.

I presume that since I compiled the code itself they can't point the finger
at the ASF so will come looking for me. (since my of my personal info is on
my CV on my site they'll find me in seconds).

Thanks for you time

Jorge

  Any comments on this are welcome.

What is it?
-
HTTP Server On USB is a self contained webserver.
Based on Apache HTTPD Server. It comes with php, mod_ssl, mod_perl and 
mod_security.
Simply drop your files into wwwroot, then your good to go!

Installation:
-
Unpack this archive into the root of an empty USB-Key,
128mb is the minimum size,
256mb is recommended if you'll be placing some larger files on there.

Usage:
-
Simple start HTTPServerOnUSB.exe
You can then use the tray icon to start/stop Apache Mobile.
Make sure to select Exit from the trayicon before removing your USB-Key!

You can change the some settings in HTTPServerOnUSB.ini
DAV - 0 = off, 1 = On (Default=1)
SSL - 0 = off, 1 = On (Default=0)
PHP - 0 = off, 1 = On (Default=1)
SSI - 0 = off, 1 = On (Default=1)
PERL- 0 = off, 1 = On (Default=1)
DEFLATE - 0 = off, 1 = On (Default=0)

User Management:
-
The default admin user account:
UID: admin
PW: apachemobile

You can only change this by resetting the user database.
To do so run %drive%:\Apache2\conf\database\restore.cmd,
You will be promted for the new password.

You can add aditional Users (for DAV) by running
%drive%:\Apache2\conf\database\add_user.cmd usernamehere, from the command line.

DAV Server:
-
There are no default DAV users.
So you must use the admin UID and PW.

Use a DAV client to access it or use IE:
File-Open-http://127.0.0.1:81, check Open as Web Folder-OK

No worries, but while I have attention let me hold on to it for a bit longer
;)

Regarding the disclaimer I asked about in my previous message. Since you
didn't give an answer to that in other message.

Kind Regards

Regarding the disclaimer: the ASF (nor the httpd project nor the PRC)
can give you legal advice on how to craft your disclaimer...
It's really beyond our scope.

I'll just copy and past the one I have on the x64 binaries I have on there
then.

If you simply note these are the officially released sources and you
provide compiled binaries under the Apache License 2.0 (with no warranty
as spelled out under that license), you should be in reasonably good shape.

If you export from a country that has cryptographic export controls (e.g.
computer programs-as-munitions) you should either avoid shipping any SSL
components or be very careful to follow the export regulations.

And as Jim says, don't take this as legal advise, you are best to consult
with a lawyer, or a software redistributor in your country who's thoroughly
reviewed the issue of redistributing or building binaries of open source
software.  Note there can be legal differences between a program source
code and a functioning, compiled program, depending on your jursidiction ;-)

Ok seems I need to change them, I'll push the change when 2.2.6 is release
and I update WebServerOnAStick (formerly Apache Mobile).

If anyone has any ideas for a new name for ApacheMon... Please let me know
since I don't know any.
If I can't find any I'll simply remove it from the website since I haven't
updated in a while... and not sure if it is really usefull it only has +-
1600 downloads in over 2 years.

But you ask the public relations committee for permission
