[Dxspider-support] DxSpider on a Mac

[Steven Franke]

I am running Spider on OS X Tiger 10.4.4 now (K9USA:  
soliton.csl.uiuc.edu, port 8000). In order to get Spider to run on OS  
X Panther, it was necessary to upgrade Berkeley DB from the supplied  
version (1.5) to 4.3. I also had to make the DB_File module which was  
supplied with the new Berkeley DB. I did not have to do anything else  
after I upgraded the machine to run OS X Tiger. YMMV, but I think  
that you will still need to update Berkeley DB, even on a new Tiger  
installation. At some point I did switch to using launchd to handle  
starting and restarting the cluster.
