Would you ever consider renaming the files so standard Apache servers can deliver them?

Seems Sourceforge has the same problem with files called "x.cgi.y" as lots of other sites. In other words, it's not a file permission problem, but an Apache setup problem.

You'll find them on-line at http://www.hswn.dk/hobbit/help/manpages/

Hey Mike, do you think we can get Sourceforge to do that for us? ;)

See hobbit-4.2.0/docs/hobbit-apacheconf.txt or /etc/httpd/conf.d/hobbit-apache.conf in the RPM.

Add to the following section in your apache config: <Directory "/path/to/hobbit/server/www"> RemoveHandler .cgi

I like to suggest in the future version hobbit, the configure and makefile should be design to generate server,client and proxy binaries into different paths.

Example like following,

/opt/hobbit-server bin doc man etc /opt/hobbit-client bin man doc /opt/hobbit-proxy bin man doc

This will help software packagers to create packages for different OS platforms.

I already separate hobbit and hobbit-client in the RPMS for Mandriva (which I rebuild for RHEL also). The only problem is that you may end up with duplicate binaries (eg bb). What I have done in this case is made hobbit depend on hobbit-client, so I can avoid duplicates.

I'll see if I can get this done in the make file instead of the spec file.

I think this is just the kind of work that software packagers should do. If you need an example, just look at the debian- and rpm-build scripts included with the Hobbit source - they generate separate server- and client-packages, and splitting out the proxy installation into a separate package would be easy.

Maybe we could ask Henrik to add a .htaccess file with "RemoveHandler .cgi" to the docs dir on SourceForge?

Fantastic, I didn't know you could do that in a .htaccess file.

Thanks Mike, the man-pages are working now.
