Zend Server CE is an awesome product. We had installed it just after it’s release but hadn’t really delved into all it’s features until today. We were just using it as a quick web server, but we weren’t doing any development in the environment. But that is about to change. We decided to re-work some architecture to enable development on our local computers (24″ iMacs with OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard FTW). With that decision, it meant we had to setup a solid, testable environment locally, so we decided to really put Zend Server CE to the test. That action should have been much easier than it ended up being…
Basically, Zend Server CE and Snow Leopard don’t really play well together. Out of the box, Zend Server CE’s management console does not work at all. We actually found this out a few weeks ago when we were passively using Zend Server CE. It has to do with the watchdog service in OS X. Hopefully this will be solved in the next version of Zend Server CE. Here is a work-around to get past the issue.

Our campus is in the process of moving towards Groupwise for our email and calendar solution for faculty and staff. However, I wanted to just use my Google Calendar to keep up with all my appointments. This tutorial will take you through my process of delegating my appointments to Google Calendar.
Step 1: Delegating all appointments in Groupwise
Once you have Groupwise open, click on the Tools menu, and select Rules.
We recently had the need to integrate campus authentication with Joomla, an open source content management system. The reason behind this is pretty obvious….we don’t want people to have to remember ANOTHER username and password when we can make it easy for them. Here at NC State, the standard authentication mechanism is WRAP. We looked at doing a WRAP module for Joomla, but why do extra work?
