O'Reilly Network -- Open Tools for MySQL Administrators

O'Reilly Network -- Open Tools for MySQL Administrators: "MySQL provides some tools to monitor and troubleshoot a MySQL server, but they don't always suit a MySQL developer or administrator's common needs, or may not work in some scenarios, such as remote or over-the-web monitoring.

apache+Domino的整合

先前已有透過 apache與 tomcat整合，達到透過 tomcat來存取 domino資料庫，現在透過 google大神找到另一方式來與 domino整合。

主要是修改 httpd.conf檔案，幫原本被註解掉的mod_proxy.so、mod_proxy_http.so以及mod_rewrite.so開啟，並增加

ReWriteEngineOn
ReWriteRule ^(.*).nsf http://localhost:81$1.nsf$2
