Look down to "Creating the basic repository"




1)
When asked Configure vital settings? [yes] ?, say "Yes" and fill in the details Hostname? is the actual address of the web server created above, not the public address (we fix that later) Webserver Port [80] ? is the actual address of the web server created above, not the port for the web server (we fix that later) 

(ie, you configure eprints with http://eprints.local:8080)

2)
EPrints produces absolute URLs for everything (http://web.host.name/), so we need to ensure that the repository uses the correct address. Edit archives/ARCHIVEID/cfg/cfg.d/10_core.pl 
$c->{host} = 'public.host.name.org';
$c->{port} = '80';
3) restart the server & run the various "generate" scripts to rebuild all the pages. 


..... been working for me for 6+ years :)
