Title: Modifying An IBay's Info In The httpd.conf
Post by: Jim Hale on March 07, 2003, 06:32:54 AM

I have an IBay that I need to comment out (or remove completely) the alias regarding /files.

If I do it in the actual httpd.conf, it works great - until I reboot and the system recontructs the file.

Where in the custom templates do I modify the info for the ibay so that it keeps the changes no matter what happens to the httpd.conf?

Thanks! :)

/etc/e-smith/templates/etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf/ is a good place to start looking. The fragments are named descriptively, and some have "ibay" right in the name. However, I *think* there's one file for all ibays, and it just loops through and pulls the values for each ibay from the configuration database.

Might it be easier to just set the permissions on the files subdirectory so no one can access them?

Seems to me the permissions don't change on reboot.

Also could try renaming it to .users

Thanks Bill,

That's what I needed to know. :)

To Mike: It's not that I want to disallow people from using that folder, but I'm running moodle and it has it's own 'files' folder, so with the alias in there, it was causing moodle to be broken. Once I took that alias out of the httpd.conf, it was fixed.

Jim, I'm installing Moodle and run into the same problem. Can't figure out how to make the changes (remove the files alias for the moodle ibay) templated.
Can you help me out please
