HOW DO I DELETE THIS... SOMEONE BEAT ME WITH A FAR BETTER PAGE SO THIS SHOULD BE ERASED
ZoneMinder is in the Lucid Lynx repositories. Simply doing
sudo apt-get install zoneminder
should install everything, all dependencies and requisites. I did it using Synaptic, in the GUI, and everything ran smoothly.
After installation just one thing needs to be done: the ZoneMinder's Apache configuration file is not included in the Apache's config. A way to do so is:
ln -s /etc/zm/apache.conf /etc/apache2/conf.d/zm.conf /etc/init.d/apache2 restart
Probably needing sudo on both commands...
Your ZoneMinder server will be at http://localhost/zm/
This instructions should be valid for 32 and 64-bit installations, both server and desktop versions with a big difference in installation time using the server version if it was setup as a LAMP server, since you will already have apache and mysql.
