RE: [ros-dev] Reactos.com problems

[Rick Langschultz]

I would like to see FC4 with OpenLDAP, PHP, Perl,IMAP, and MySQL installed.
I was thinking someone could do an OpenLDAP implementation of MailMan and a
login system, as well as using OpenLDAP in their directory services in their
email composition programs. The OpenLDAP implementation would allow the web
team, development team, and users. This would allow customization of
credentials in the Reactos.com system. If developers need to post code
authentication would provide that, I am still working on my site, which will
be more of a CMS portal system than what reactos.com once was. My site would
also be able to allow people to upload bug fixes for public or private
review, documentation library as well as API library based on the one at
svn.reactos.com/api(something), it would utilize PHP and MySQL to maintain
information about users and statistics, as well as actual page text also. An
OpenLDAP implementation of MailMan would be a plus because "developers"
ros-dev(a)reactos.com would be sent to only developers, and sent to a server
account that utilized an IMAP protocol, this is easier for one email to be
read my multiple people, and not sent to possibly hundreds (just a little
aspect of bandwidth conservation). I think if Reactos.com offered email
services also much like (MSN, or Hotmail) we would gain some ground in the
development field.

What is the actual hardware look like for reactos.com?

Just a rant,
Rick Langschultz

I'm back from vacation and intend to reinstall the reactos.com box tomorrow
(Sunday morning GMT). It will be some time before all services are back to
normal, the IP address is still blocked at the network level and it will
probably be Monday evening before it is unblocked.
My plan is to reinstall using Fedora Core 4. If anyone doing (or planning to
do) active work on the website would prefer another distribution, please
email me privately (don’t want to start a distribution war here...).
