Hello George, Hello Stephen, the latest version of the openmeeting tutorial for debian squeeze (64bit) you can find here in the list of om-tutorials: https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/OPENMEETINGS/Tutorials+for+installing+OpenMeetings+and+Tools or directly here: https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/download/attachments/27838216/Installing+OM2.x+On+Debian64+-+Headless.pdf?version=18&modificationDate=1360327950000
In that tutorial version some of your suggestions are allready fixed. The binarie-path of apache-ant is old, thats right. The 1.8.4 is not available anymore. @Stephen: For ffmpeg I am using the version 1.1.5 right now. And it works fine with om 2.1.1. But have you ever tried the latest version of ffmpeg 1.2.1 "Magic"?
