Setup subversion as an xinetd process in a few simple steps.

  • Install software
  • sudo aptitude install xinetd subversion
  • Create root/home directory for subversion
  • sudo mkdir /var/svn
  • Create a user account for subversion
  • sudo adduser --system --home /var/svn --no-create-home --disabled-password --disabled-login --group svn
  • Give ownership of the svn root directory to the svn user
  • chown -R svn:svn /var/svn
  • Change to the svn user and create a new repository
  • sudo -s -u svn
svnadmin create /var/svn/mynewrepository
  • Configure svnserve
  • 

    (edit file: /var/svn/mynewrepository/conf/svnserve.conf)
    

[general]
anon-access = none
auth-access = write
password-db = passwd

  • 

    (edit file: /var/svn/mynewrepository/conf/passwd)
    

[users]
myusername = mypassword
  • Configure xinetd
  • 

    (create file: /etc/xinetd.d/svnserve)
    

service svn
{
 port = 3690
 socket_type = stream
 protocol = tcp
 wait = no
 user = svn
 server = /usr/bin/svnserve
 server_args = -i -r /var/svn
 }
  • Restart xinetd
  • sudo /etc/init.d/xinetd restart
  • Now you can check out your repository with the following command
  • svn co svn://myusername@localhost/mynewrepository

    To stay in touch with all your contacts you often install many different kinds of IM-applications. In a worst case scenario you could end up with one application for each of these services: MSN, Google Talk, AIM, Yahoo, ICQ, IRC, Facebook Chat, Twitter, Skype and maybe a few more, but the truth is probably that[...]

    In my first attempt I made an installer with a libsamplerate library that had some issues with OS X 10.5. The new build is tested on both 10.5.8 and 10.6.2 and should work on all Intel Macs running OS X 10.5 or newer. The installer can be downloaded from the RaopX projects page.

    Since a lot of people don’t have the Developer Tools package installed, and doing so maybe just to try out one application is a bit tedious, I have put together an installer package for RaopX. The installer should work on any Intel based Mac running Os X 10.5 or newer, and it installs both the[...]

    Since Snow Leopard broke GPGMail I started to use Mutt, and I wanted to use lbdb to be able to search my Os X Address Book for contacts. With Snow Leopard also comes a new Xcode release, version 3.2, and that made some problems when trying to build ABQuery in lbdb-0.36. One of the users[...]
