Classmates: Greenstone?

I hope people read this...have you gotten Greenstone working? On what platform? Are your group members able to access your server remotely, or are you getting together in person to assemble your collection?

I'm able to get it to run on OSX and on Windows, but I can't quite get the remote part (i.e. Apache) worked out and I'm wondering if anybody had any luck with this.

I'm not going to be a lot of help, I'm afraid. I utterly failed to get it to install on my web space (at Dreamhost) and am just creating a "local library" on my Windows VM.

i haven't successfully gotten it going yet. here's where i basically am:

*installed greenstone.

*turned on apache on my mac.

*entered a bunch of unix code that i don't understand so as to modify the httpd.conf file? it went something like this...
1) sudo cp /etc/httpd/httpd.conf /etc/httpd/httpd.bak
2) sudo pico /etc/httpd/httpd.conf
3) then i modified the file with some script aliases that greenstone told me to use.

it didn't work, sigh.
