1. Do the configure, make, make install thing again with your new options. Very painless since it seems to protect your existing settings.

2. Depends on your webserver. There's a piece of apache config in ~hobbit/server/etc/hobbit-apache.conf that gets configured when you install hobbit. You can either append that to your apache configuration (should work for all versions), or for newer versions of apache add an include line to your config: Include /export/hobbit/server/etc/hobbit-apache.conf This works with apache 2.2 but possibly not earlier versions. It has the advantage that if I change things and/or install a new version then my apache config will be automatically adjusted.

Hope this helps

I was finally able to get hobbit to complete the installation process . . .

as you can see, near the end of the makefile, I had to leave out OpenSSl and Openldap for the install to complete.

I have a few questions:

1. Is there a way to later include OpenSSl and Openldap to be monitored?
2. Is there detailed instruction of how to configure your webserver so that it knows where the Hobbit webpages can be found?

Here's the content of my Makefile form /export/home/hobbit/hobbit-4.2.0
