[Web4lib] Greenstone 3 For Dummy [Cont.]

[Michael Schofield]

For those of you with experience with Greenstone--especially 3, although I'm 
aware that it's not necessarily a stable build--I have a few newbie 
questions. I am not very familiar with servers, but I have been tasked with 
not only building a GDL collection, but with configuring the server as well. 
So, right now, I am setting one up on a virtual machine to just get 
acquainted. 

Host Machine: Windows 7 64-bit | VM: Ubuntu 10.10 64-bit

Q1. This is probably silly, but in the GDL3 package there are two options: 
gateway and localsite. I understand that Apache Tomcat is set up to launch 
the localsite in a web server (as http://localhost:8080/greenstone/library), 
but how do I make it visible to machines on an external network? i.e.: get 
it online. Is that what Gateway is for? Greenstone3 manuals make little if 
any mention of the gateway option, so I sort of assumed that it was a 
carry-over from Greenstone 2. 

Obviously, I don't really know what I'm doing. So, the real question is, How 
do I get my Greenstone 3 library online? 

-- actually, let me leave it at that question. I have a few more, but I 
think I can figure it out if I just answer the first, which is primarily a 
server question - I think.

Thanks for your patience,

Michael
