Setting up home
Setting up this website to host the new SilentPenguin was actually easier than I thought it would be. First I set up a virtual server for silentpenguin.com. Then I added a MySQL database that I would be using for the weblog. Next I downloaded MT 3.1 and followed the installation instructions, copied everything over to the server and added the cgi-bin stuff to my virtual server in httpd.conf. After realizing that I had to restart Apache for my changes to take effect - the new site was up and running within a couple of hours. Not bad for a newbie r00t.
