I've managed to get Snakelets working with apache, so now there is a demo of Ogham running online. As before only guaranteed to work with firefox, Although I would be interested to see what other brower users think. IE only seems to be missing the right click menus on the tree. Konqueror is not loading the tree at all, and even crashed once, so be warned.

The demo is at http://oghamdemo.odonnell.nu for the curious and the brave.

For anyone else who wants to run Snakelets behind apache this is how I did it. Bear in mind that this was Apache 1.3 running on debian stable.

1. Uncomment this line in your httpd.conf , or add it if its not already present.

LoadModule proxy_module     /usr/lib/apache/1.3/libproxy.so

2. Add the virtual host configuration to your httpd.conf

<VirtualHost oghamdemo.odonnell.nu>
    ServerName oghamdemo.odonnell.nu
    ProxyPass / http://localhost:9080/
    ProxyPassReverse / http://localhost:9080/
</VirtualHost>

3. Secure the virtual host by adding these lines to httpd.conf. If you don't anyone can use your webserver as a proxy. A tactic favored by purveyors of porn dialers , trojans , etc.

<Directory oghamdemo.odonnell.nu:9080>
    Order Deny,Allow
    Deny from all
    Allow from oghamdemo.odonnell.nu
</Directory>
