Anyone try ACE?

	Has anyone tried my Apache Configuration Editor tool? Unfortunately I've
lost the machine I was developing it on with a recent thunderstorm so I haven't
made any progress (nor can I retrieve my latest sources). Some kind soul has it
all saved on a web server somewhere I'm sure.

	For those that forgot what this is/was/will be, it is a %100 Java
application that edits the 3 Apache config files via a GUI. I did test it on
UNIX & PC's with reasonable results (performance was poor under UNIX). It
managed all the tags & keywords I could find and was reasonably stable (for me
at least).

I use Dynamo (http://www.atg.com), which is a java server connected to
Apache via an Apache module.  It can be started and stopped from web pages
(on a specific port.)  There are several other modjava things as well.  So
the best way might be to build a little transport module on the server side.

It's on my list to go over again - any other reports ?

Ouch - the latest source I have are on the web site (April 21st version)

My Q is how it actually handles the files - I have my java on my PC (yes,
Win'95) but the servers are all linux boxes around the country -- mostly
not local.  How does the Java program get the config files, update or
re-write them, and then restart the server ??

Later ...
