I wanted to run Darwin Streaming Server on Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6.

I made binary RPMs for 64-bit RHEL6 using these instructions. My changes:

• fixed the symlink at /var/dss/modules to point to the correct directory
• worked around the fact that DarwinStreamingServer -x does not exit when run
• changed config path so that login to the Web Admin is possible

To install on RHEL6 (or CentOS 6, I presume):

I've been using the EnGenius ECB9500 wireless access point quite a bit. It has a lot going for it: small in size, power-over-ethernet, low cost.

One thing that has been a thorn in my side is that up til now, SNMP monitoring has been difficult because the built-in firewall rejects packets that are not from the same subnet that the IP of the WAP is on. Naturally my monitoring lives in the server room which is on a different subnet.

The firmware changelog notes that this was fixed in 2.3.0:

I'm running OS X 10.7 Lion. Today I'm working on some database-heavy code that also creates lots of watchdog entries. So I decided to turn off Drupal's database logging and turn on syslog.

I created a file for the log entries to go into:

sudo touch /var/log/drupal.log


I added one line to /etc/syslog.conf to tell OS X to put messages coming to the local3 logging facility into the new file.

local3.* /var/log/drupal.log


On RHEL6, the following packages are installed when you do

yum groupinstall "Web Server"


on a RHEL6 minimal install:
