In apache configs the alias is a simple expression mapping a url and anything under that url to a directory on the server's file system - and the corresponding sub-directories.

So the case of askbot we have to alias three directories:

 Alias /m/ /path/to/askbot/skins/
 Alias /upfiles/ /path/to/django-project/askbot/upfiles/
 Alias /admin/media/ /usr/local/lib/python2.6/site-packages/django/contrib/admin/media/

The part that you need adjust manually is where the skins, upfiles and django hosted.

We should indeed just create a script that just creates correct server configuration clause, in fact we will do it this week.

If you tell at what path django is installed and askbot - I could give you a more concrete answer.
