  • System Administration
    System Administration Application Management Application Management ● A common task for a system administrator is the installation, updating and removal of software. Several ideas exist to make that an easier job Application Management ● Most linux distributions have some sort of package manager, which allows for easier installation, removal and updating of software. ● They also typically have some sort of dependency checking, allowing administrators to know about dependencies between packages, and (with some package managers) to handle automatically those dependancies ./configure; make; make install ● The traditional approach to UNIX application installation ● Application is shipped in a "tarball" file ● The tarball file is unpacked with the tar command, then make is used to compile and install the application Tarball Demonstration ● Download the sample tarball from the website ● Execute the following commands: tar -xzvf magicrescue-1.1.5.tar.gz cd magicrescue-1.1.5 ./configure make su make install Tarball Limitations ● How do I uninstall this package? Sometimes there©s a make uninstall ● What packages are installed on my system? ● How do I keep those packages up to date? The RedHat Package Manager ● RPM is the default package manager for Red Hat Linux systems. ● It deals with .rpm files, which contain the actual programs as well as various bits of meta- information about the package: what it is, where it came from, version information and info about package dependencies. RPM Commands ● rpm -ivh <filename(s)> Installs (-i) packages. The -vh causes rpm to be verbose about what it is doing and to print hash marks (#) as it is installing packages ● rpm -Uvh <filename(s)> Updates (-U) packages.

  • Creating Your Own Linux Software Update Repository
    Creating your own linux software update repository This article will cover the steps involved to create your own satellite update server for the following distributions: • Redhat Enterprise 4 • Ubuntu 9.10/10.10 Redhat Enterprise 4 1. Pre-requisite: You must have at least 1 valid Redhat Network entitlement. Using this one entitlement, you can use a machine with Redhat Enterprise 4 installed to distribute updates to as many other Redhat Enterprise 4 servers on your network as you like. 2. Run rhn_register. This will register your RHEL4 machine with the Redhat Network. Redhat will verify that you have a free entitlement available. If there is one available, it will assign your machine the appropriate update channel (i.e. AS or ES or WS for your architecture) 3. Create a directory to store the updates. (/updates in this example) 4. Create a shell script that fetches all packages from Redhat for the subscribed channel. See appendix I. 5. Add the shell script to cron to run nightly. 6. Setup Apache to share the directory containing the updates. Alias /up2date /updates <Directory "/updates"> #Options +Indexes AllowOverride None Order allow,deny Allow from all </Directory> Client configuration: 1. Ensure that the following packages are installed: a. python-elementtree-1.2.6-7.el4.rf.i386.rpm b. python-urlgrabber-2.9.7-1.2.el4.rf.noarch.rpm c. yum-2.6.1-1.noarch.rpm d. python-sqlite-1.0.1-1.2.el4.rf.i386.rpm e. sqlite-2.8.16-1.2.el4.rf.i386.rpm 2.
