Seaside deployment help

Hi all,

 It is the first time I want to deploy a seaside app and I encouter problems that have already been discussed and blogged but I can't find the needed informations.

 The situation:

    1) On web server ( e.g www.monsite.fr) on which I have an account named luc and no specials rights (root password...)
    2) my web site is accessible through http://www.monsite.fr/~luc/
    3) adding rewriting rules in a .htaccess allows me to redirect request to a backend server on which I have root access :
        http://www.mysite.fr/~luc/seaside/* -> http://myserver:9090/...

 I would :
    configure the seaside image so that all urls will have the following form : /~luc/seaside/*
    (I guess it is the most simple way to achieve my will)
 but I don't want to use the two atributes "Server Hostname" and "Server Path" because I would prefer a simpler solution like modify the default WADispatcher in order to configure all applications at once.
Is there a better solution ?
 
 Questions:
    - What is "Resourse base Url" configuration?
    When I changed it for counter app for example,  static files url are not changer and links are not good e.g
    /seaside/files/WAStandardFiles/toolbar.css

What about a one-liner that sets the server-path for all applications?

You don't need to bother about hostname if you use Apache 2, because
Seaside will figure out by itself.

This setting is only used if you are sending #resourceUrl: to some
tags. WACounter doesn't use it, therefor nothing changes.

I achieve my will (generate all links with the form /~luc/seaside/...)  by doing:

1) Set "Server Hostname" and "Server Path" for all entryPoints that are Applications
 - Even if it is apache 2, it doesn't fully work without "Server Hostname"
 - foreach anApp : "Server Path" is set to : ('~luc/' , anApp basePath)

2) Correction of the config app that don't use the "Server Path" config to write links (Bug?)
In the code of:
WADispatcherComponent>>renderRowName: anEntryPoint named: aString on: html
use #baseUrl instead of #basePath

3) change links to files of libraries (WAStandardFiles, WADispatcherFiles)
e.g /seaside/files/WAStandardFiles/toolbar.css to /~luc/seaside/files/WAStandardFiles/toolbar.css

The quick and dirty solution:

WAFileHandler>>baseUrl
    ^ WAUrl new
        addToPath: '~luc/seaside/files';
        yourself

now it works and it was not painless...
