It is accessed by asking for port 8080. Please check it out and let me know if there are any problems. This is apache verison 1.0.3 This is part of our conversion from a single web server to a clustered pile-o-web-servers. This server works with many, NFS mounted filesystems, is easily extended and otherwise modified for our use. It may obviate some of the nagging problems we have had with the ncsa server - like the null connection problem. In the future this will be www.cac's server also. The plan is something like this: 1) Test apache on port 8080 2) Run apache live on port 80 on weber 3) Run apache on both weber and weber02 4) Move /www files to the file server(s) Jim Fox 1-May-1996 11:36:27 -0700,1416;000000000001 Return-Path: Received: via tmail-4.0(2) for deroest; Wed, 1 May 1996 11:36:27 -0700 (PDT) Return-Path: Received: from mailer12.u.washington.edu by franklin01.u.washington.edu (5.65+UW96.04/UW-NDC Revision: 2.33 ) id AA16076; Wed, 1 May 96 11:36:27 -0700 Received: from mx2.cac.washington.edu by mailer12.u.washington.edu (5.65+UW96.04/UW-NDC Revision: 2.33 ) id AA24599; Wed, 1 May 96 11:36:26 -0700 Received: from franklin01.u.washington.edu by mx2.cac.washington.edu (5.65+UW96.04/UW-NDC Revision: 2.33 ) id AA07126; Wed, 1 May 96 11:36:25 -0700 Received: from tao.cac.washington.edu by franklin01.u.washington.edu (5.65+UW96.04/UW-NDC Revision: 2.33 ) id AA20416; Wed, 1 May 96 11:36:24 -0700 Date: Wed, 1 May 1996 11:36:46 -0700 () From: Jim Fox To: James W DeRoest Subject: Re: Weber stats In-Reply-To: Message-Id: X-Sender: fox@franklin01.u.washington.edu Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII > > Can you give me the stats on weber access: > We have 6000 users on weber We get about 400,000 hits per day, with the peak load at almost 30,000 per hour around noon.

V5 will come * later. Furthermore, cross realm authentication is not supported in * this release. * * Usage: * * Kerberos authentication will only be attempted if AuthType is set * to KerberosV4. Require lines will work as expected. * A different realm can also be specified using the KrbAuthRealm * directive in the .htaccess. * It supports mutual tkt authentication via Mosaic-2.7bx like httpd-1.5x, as well as the passing of userid and passwd via the usual Basic auth mechanism...combined with SSL, not a bad solution for our PC/Mac and Netscape users.

In-Reply-To: Message-Id: Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Sounds good, though I expect an implementation that brings up a CPU to run the Samba code that mounts the saul/webber file system would work best... I wouldn't hold your breath for a mac smb client. See below: ====== From rob@eats.com Mon Mar 18 09:50:58 1996 Date: 14 Mar 1996 23:31:09 -0500 From: Rob Newberry To: "Mark W. McNair" Subject: Re: Samba etc.? Mark, The reason there's no SMB client for the Mac is that, well, the protocol doesn't really meet the needs of Macintoshes, which have their own, more elegant, set of needs from a file or print server. SMB can't deal with things like "give me the resource fork" and the like. It is, however, quite possible to run AppleTalk services on most Unix-based systems. If you're interested in Linux, look at "netatalk" -- it is quite good. I have patches for CAP to work using Native Ethertalk, but since Netatalk works via the kernel, it's just not really worth it. A better port of CAP is in the works, but I can't say when it will be done... You can find this (and more!) information on my web page, "Linux Services for Macintosh and Windows Users", at: http://www.eats.com/linux_mac_win.html Once again, I'm very sorry for the delay in replying.

Thanks for letting everyone know about this change and for checking for potentially affected users. > Also, the tilde or relative notation will work in htaccess paths. > See /www/d10/fox/ht and /www/d10/fox/etc I've updated the webdemo tutorial to use the tilde paths and added explanation and examples that use it. Are there any other places where absolute paths are required? I can't think of any, but if there are it may be a good idea to add tilde expansion there as well. It makes it easier to tell users to just always use tilde notation when specifying any directory path. BTW. Brad Greer pointed out to me that one of the example CGI programs I put in webdemo when it was first set up had a big security hole in it. I've fixed that, and started to do a bit of cleanup of the webdemo page. If anyone else sees anything that is out of date or that needs to be fixed (e.g., links to "help cluster" have been changed to point at tech_home), please let me know.
