00:00what's up everybody I found another gopher server site from gophernikus
00:09which I thought of installing and trying it with you it's called GeoMyDay
00:17if I said it correctly and I'm gonna install it first on my gentle machine
00:23to install it we simply run sudo emerge dash av av geo my day if I said it right
00:37and spelled it correctly also let's see
00:46yes there is no download here since I installed it before and the installation
00:52files are in the cache I guess why here and enter okay the installation is done
01:02we may need to take a look at the manual page of this piece of software which has
01:13all the installation steps we need to all these steps that you see here starting
01:21from downloading from the ftp server of bitrich if we can say up until mic and sudo mic install
01:33we got them all done for us after running the installation command on our gentle machine
01:42we should have slash var slash gopher if I'm not mistaken since I remember I saw
01:46it in the installation let's see ls
01:59slash var slash gopher yes we have it so in this case we don't need to run this command in your case
02:09if you found that you don't have such directory you may need to
02:21make it okay we have here we have here index.gph
02:26I believe this is the page that is equivalent to index.html
02:43I believe it is and it didn't specify its path which means that we need to have
02:52one I may need to look online for it okay I found a sample file for index.gph which is the equivalent of
03:05index.html it's from another piece of software for gopher server it's another gopher server software
03:17which is called gopher we may make a video about it I believe it's a good idea let's
03:28copy it it's mostly a plain text file
03:36let's make a file we call it index.gph and then
03:41we edit it we copy to it everything in this file so far
03:54like this copy and then paste here save and exit
04:04we can run now sudo cp this command here
04:11paste paste password
04:22we need to make sure that there is this file
04:24ls var log
04:37and geo myday okay let's hope the application doesn't complain about not finding such file
04:49we copy this full command
04:54paste paste paste
05:02okay no output
05:08ps dash aux
05:13grab
05:15geo myday
05:16all right all right still running we can see the log here
05:31tail dash f
05:38var log
05:40geo myday
05:47okay
05:49i'm running all these commands on my server which is not the one i'm recording from i'm using this
05:56computer that you're seeing me from and it's not where i installed this piece of software
06:02uh we need to have a client that is that supports gopher like links this is uh arch linux so let's install it i don't have it installed here
