I’ve just spent a good two to three hours of my time screwing with the Apache 2.0.54 Ubuntu Linux package, just to get mod_rewrite to work properly. So if you have an Error 500 when adding “RewriteEngine On” to your .htaccess, this is the fix for you.
and you should be up and running. Hope that assists you people out there. I know I spent too much time on that. 
Well I was on a friend of mine’s (Helio, an admin of the wyldryde.org irc network) server and he had usermin up. I had always wanted to play with it on this server, I have just always forgotten about it. Well today I decided to get it setup and configured. Usermin/Webmin are very great tools for admins on the go.
Webmin allows you to control basically every aspect of your server and more. Usermin comes in when you want users to be able to control their accounts and settings, just like being logged in at the box physically. I have Usermin setup to allow file upload/download, apache configuration, mysql administration, and protegresql administration though it. Tip: Make sure you run the setup.sh script after you install the Usermin port from /usr/ports/sysutils/usermin. The message makes you think that it needs to only be run to update to a new version, it doesn’t.
Well, one day until my KVM gets here. 
Don’t freak out on my if the site does not get updated every day during this week, I have at least two regular tests and final exams all this week and Monday and Tuesday of next week, then I’m off for two weeks. During that time, this site will get some work, and I’d like to get some work done on osdever.net and IllusionOS.
