I have succeeded at creating my own installation of Fargo Publisher on a Debian Linux server and it publishes content to a Amazon S3 bucket. I did this following Chris Dadswell's instructions, thanks to Chris for sharing them. Chris has also found a way to publish content rendered by Fargo to an Apache web server, which basically uses a python script to sync the blog content on Dropbox to a directory on his server. I think I prefer to stay with S3 primarily because I won't have to maintain an Apache web server on the Internet.
The moral of the story is that to use this configuration you need to be pretty precise in how you name things and set up DNS. Once all the dots are connected it works very well.
