My class was assigned a project, using Apache. It's due on Tuesday, and not 1 person in here has used it before. Our professor isn't helping us, so we're trying to learn how to do it. Unfortunately, we're only finding tutorials telling us WHAT to do, not WHY the commands are doing what they are doing.
Install Apache
Configure it to use https with a self-signed certificate
Install the subversion software repository service
Create to repositories:
- open
- prot
Add 2 text files to each repository for testing
make both services start at boot time
We're not wanting this done for us, we just want help. [

This is the site that we're looking at...
The only thing understood is
step 1: the install.
#(root)/> yum -y install httpd subversion mod_dav_svn mod_ssl openssl
step 2:
mkdir is easy enough, we're making a directory called repos.
For chown, i'll use Google. What does "apache:apache /svn" do?
#(root)/> mkdir -p /svn/repos
#(root)/> chown -R apache:apache /svn
You can pretty much see where this is going...lots of "What does #*$!#*$!x after #*$!x command do?"
Is it possible to get some help with this, or am I asking too much?
I tried using Google to find a "man page" for apache, but we're having no luck.
