Cool! 23:20 jcamins_away Just change the paths in koha-conf.xml and the Apache conf file. 23:18 jcamins_away Hm.

More like "work-around." 22:58 eythian yeah, that's probably the easiest way. 22:57 jcamins_away I went with the "move client B to a spare server temporarily" option. 22:57 jcamins_away Using the packages makes it so much easier to manage the server, and upgrades are a snap, but I encountered a situation where I have to do one upgrade one week, and the other the next week 22:57 eythian we don't do that, we schedule a time to do it all at once. 22:56 jcamins_away Right. 22:56 eythian on the same machine? 22:56 eythian beer is a suitable trade :) 22:56 jcamins_away When I need to do upgrades for my two small clients on different days. 22:56 eythian I'm OK with that ;) 22:55 * jcamins_away takes lots of credit for cribbing all your solutions. 22:55 eythian heh 22:55 eythian what's that? 22:55 jcamins_away Well, that I haven't cribbed a solution to off of you. 22:55 jcamins_away :) 22:55 jcamins_away This leaves only one more technical issue that I haven't figured out. 22:55 jcamins_away Yup. 22:55 eythian :) 22:55 eythian But that's hopefully enough for you to get going. 22:55 jcamins_away There's even a readme! Awesome! 22:55 eythian It doesn't understand the packages, as I did it for a client who isn't yet using them, but it's been on my todo for a while to make it hook into them and be a bit smarter. 22:54 jcamins_away Thanks! 22:54 jcamins_away Cool! 22:54 eythian http://git.catalyst.net.nz/gw?p=koha.git;a=tree;f=nagios;h=9a09915fd3f241d4e6ea6dd8b49d4b65a3b26c6d;hb=refs/heads/nagios <-- jcamins_away, all the code is in nagios/, and the branch name is nagios. 22:52 jcamins_away eythian++ 22:52 eythian of course, one moment 22:52 jcamins_away eythian: so, any chance I could persuade you to share those plugins?

I wouldn't be surprised to find there's a way to do it. 00:01 lastnode or do i have to do it manually? 00:01 lastnode gotcha. so is there any way i can generaet authorities from teh records i already have in the db 00:01 eythian It reduces typos, bundles a bunch of information together in one place, and allows it to be updated centrally. 00:00 eythian lastnode: look at data from a system that's a few years old without them, and you'll see what they're for :) 00:00 jcamins The idea is to disambiguate names. 00:00 jcamins lastnode: no, it's a good question. 00:00 jcamins Ah. Right. 00:00 eythian jcamins: sorry, bad phrasing: I've never known it to not allow imports from Z39.50 because of missing authorities, but I've never explicitly tried that either
