Hmm.  Well, I looked at that link, and found multiple other links to other 
pages, all of which seem to assume a base level of deployment knowledge of what 
needs to be done.  It does seem that turning off DirectConnect might be useful 
for development, assuming I can continue to develop the rather complex series 
of apps we work on once that is done.  However, I am really starting at a 
novice level, and am finding it hard to find the basic foundational info I need.

e.g. step 1: Configure your Apache to use mod_WebObjects or the cgi-bin adaptor

I don't know how to do that.
The next several steps are equally unclear to me, being a non-deployment 
person.  (the "profit" step I think I can get)

I found an old "Legacy" pdf on deploying WebObjects from Apple, and found some 
pages on how to do it with Snow Leopard, but as one of the machines I would be 
using has Leopard, I have idea whether I should use this.

Apparently, this is all very easy, assuming you know where any of it is.

I will look at the ancient pdf, and hope that not much has changed, I guess.  I 
was just hoping there was a step by step, "this is what you need to configure 
on a plain vanilla OS X client box to get a plain vanilla WO app to run" set of 
instructions somewhere, with explanations for why one would change whatever 
they are changing.  I will dig I guess.

Thanks for your help.
