[vdr] Re: AW: Re: vdradmin & apache

["Walter, Marcel" <Marcel.Walter@drkw.com>]

So .... have been at home ... looked it up ... found this out:

You´ll have to compile apache with mod_proxy (if not already done so)...

These lines have to be in httpd.conf
<IfModule mod_proxy.c>
    ProxyRequests On
    ProxyPass /linvdr/ <http://<IP.Of.Your.VDR-Computer:8001/>
</IfModule>

you can then access this machine by accessing /linvdr on your webserver ...
Works perfect...

BUT: Why must there be a webserver within vdradmin? There are so many 
        professional webservers (Apache).... Why developing an own webserver
        only for serving a few sites ?
        In my opinion it would be better only to provide some cgi-scripts
which 
        can be deployed on a webserver (e.g Apache)... that would be
satisfying....
        ( whereas vdradmin crashes sometime, apache would never have done
so! )

Cheers,
Marcel Walter
