[Server-devel] wwwoffle?

[Dan Zubey]

Well, I had been wondering where was the *appropriate* place to post it. 
heh. I've uploaded it to http://openincident.com/download/xs-wwwoffle.sh 
and http://openincident.com/download/xs-wwwoffle-conf.tgz

The first is the actual script, the second is a tarball of the config 
files for under /etc/xs-wwwoffle. Under root dir, just tar xzvf 
xs-wwwoffle-conf.tgz

The script does significant checking to make sure the new config 
directory is there, and moves the default xs-wwwoffle out of the way.

I spent some time adding checks to see if squid is actually used, and 
doesn't start it up if it's not there. So if you don't want to have the 
script use squid, just simply chmod 644 /usr/sbin/squid

The script and configuration does not touch the cache, and I've disabled 
auto purging. Even so, do make a backup copy of the pre-primed cache 
directory before use.

To use the script, just run it with xs-wwwoffle.sh start. It does it's 
checks, and forks the check loop into the background. You can stop the 
check loop, disable wwwoffle and re-enable squid (if applicable) with 
xs-wwwoffle.sh stop.

I'm sure it's far from perfect, but let me know what issues there are, 
and I'll try my best to fix.

Thanks,

-Dan
