Resources for “Slash”
July 1st, 2004 by Reuven M. Lerner in
The main distribution and discussion site for Slash is www.slashcode.com. However, the InstallSlash site (installslash.org) provides some good instructions, and the Slash IRC channel (#slash on irc.slashcode.com) is home to a number of prominent Slash developers.
O'Reilly and Associates publishes a book on Slash, Running Weblogs with Slash. I have not read this book, but the sample chapter available on the O'Reilly Web site, as well as the table of contents, indicate that it may be a useful purchase, particularly for system administrators who are less experienced with Apache and mod_perl.
If you need help compiling or installing mod_perl, be sure to consult the mod_perl guide, edited by Stas Bekman, at perl.apache.org/guide. The guide has grown a lot over the years, and it now contains a great deal of wisdom about the installation, care and administration of a mod_perl site.

Feeling a bit like a Thermian? Never give up, never surrender! Someday, you could go from underdog to top dog. Just take a look at a few of the underdogs we highlight in this issue: Mutt, djbdns, Nginix, Gentoo, Xara and the program voted mostly likely to fail just a few years back—Firefox. If Firefox not radical enough for you, check out Chef Marcel's column for some more alternatives. Having trouble mapping your program data to your relational database? If so, Rueven Lerner shows you some tricks in his At The Forge column.
Need to run GUI applications on your server in the next state? In his Paranoid Penguin column, Mick Bauer shows you how to do it securely.
