Note: this was written before the upgrade of my Drupal Scripts Library to use Drush rather than CVS (or Git). See my post on this subject.

I looked into web log reporting on DreamHost the other day. DreamHost provides web log stats system called 'Analog'. It's a) not the nicest system out there (I think it's cruder looking that Webalizer) and b) it is only accessible via the url 'domain/stats'. Because of this, it requires munging (drupal specific) of a site's .htaccess file (if it exists) or creating on (if

Like everyone else in the universe, I have my own preferred bash setup. Discussed here is the setup I use with DreamHost.
UPDATE: See 1st comment below.
I'll start with the .bash_profile file as it simply references the .bashrc file:
# ~/.bash_profile: executed by bash(1) for login shells.
if [ -f ~/.bashrc ]; then
. ~/.bashrc
fi
(I've always done it this way -- never having a different config for login/non-login shells. YMMV.)

At some point, I'd like to investigate setting up a full-bore web-fronted mailing list. Initially with the bikegeeks list, we discussed fronting the mailman list with a site so that users could sign up for the mailing list directly on the website. This (I guess) could be done with the 'Mailman Register' and 'User Mailman Register' modules (see refs #1 and #2) below. This would remove the necessity of sending the users off the site to sign up for the list and remove the necessity to interact with the primitive-looking mailman interface.

As a follow up to my posting about the my Drupal script library, I thought I'd write a bit about the installation techniques I've been using for Drupal installs.
As described in the script README file (and practiced by the drupalDeploy.sh script), I create and maintain a particular installation system w/ all my Drupal site installations.

Here's a list of things I regularly change when I set up a new mailman list: (Remember to submit changes between screens!)

I have created a nifty set of scripts for managing collections of Drupal installations. I find them indispensable for maintaining a large stable of Drupal sites. The scripts allow for automated install and patching of Drupal installations as well as a host of other administrative tasks. They enforce and leverage my best practices for Drupal deployments. They extend Drush to make things easier (at least for me).
