Hi,

I have been working on doing my own slippy map with mapnik and mod_tile. The 
documentation mentions the following steps:

    *  Download the planet file from planet.openstreetmap.org
    * Import into a PostGIS database using osm2pgsql
    * Set up mapnik and test using osm.xml and the generate_image.py
    * Compile and install mod_tile
    * Run the rendering daemon and ensure it can write to the tile storage 
directory
    * Configure your Apache server to load and run the module
    * Change the OpenLayers instance to point to your server 

After a long laborious battle I have reached the last stage. I need to point 
the openlayers instance to my server, but cannot find documentation how to do 
it. Can anyone point me to this?
