Editing SnipsInstallation

MarkedForDeletion SNIPS is totally depreciated The official developer's install notes are at http://www.netplex-tech.com/snips/install.txt == On the new client == * Create snips group: groupadd -g 13000 -o snips * Create snips user: useradd -u 13000 -g 13000 -c "Snips User" -d /export/home/snips -m -s /bin/tcsh snips * This will leave snips with a *LK* entry in /etc/shadow which is OK * remove ~snips/local.cshrc and .profile and .login which useradd created. * From an existing client (not mgmt1) , tar up ~snips/ (the whole directory); the SnapShots system will need a .ssh/ and authorized_keys which also came over when you tarred up ~snips. Install that on the new machine, and chmod -R snips ~snips/ * Install SnipsStartupScript == On mgmt1 == su - snips cd ~/etc add entries for the new server to the following files: ** hostmon-confg ** portmon-confg ** ippingmon-confg * init.d/_thing_-init hup for each of those monitors == Test the client == * from mgmt1, telnet to the client, port 5355 * for the SnapShots system, test that you have a no-login ssh that works: from mgmt1; su - snips ssh newserver date Category: HowtoCategory SnipsCategory
