I have had a wonderful chat with my friend Frank Wu, who is also interested in my idea of making a better Othello game online. We are busy with other activities but this time we will make sure our commitment to this project will eventually lead to a success.
I’ve already purchased a Ubuntu 10.04 LTS server from Linode’s VPS hosting, and installed most of the basic stuff for this project like apache, php, mysql and svn. But before any code can be entered, a lot of prerequisites need to be met, including but not limited to:
- setup post commit hook so that web content could automatically be synced with the header version of svn repository.
- enable OpenID as an Apache mod
- enable mod_ssl to support Secure Socket Layer for form based authentication
- continue on the configuration for Apache, PHP and MySQL security
A lot of useful Linux tips really have helped me a lot, I will summarize them in later posts shortly.
