How to determine Current Fedora version
Sunday, December 23rd, 2007Setup rsync server
Thursday, December 20th, 2007For example, we want to set up an rsync server to duplicate the subversion server data to other computers.
First, of cause we have to have rsync installed. For fedora, this should be included in default installation.
Then we will create the config folder and config in Fedora’s style:
cd /etc mkdir rsyncd cd rsyncd touch rsyncd.conf touch rsyncd.motd touch rsyncd.secrets chmod 600 rsyncd.secrets
Then will edit rsyncd.conf file:
pid file=/var/run/rsyncd.pid port=873 address=192.168.2.111 uid=root gid=root use chroot=yes read only=yes # limit access to LANS hosts allow=192.168.2.0/255.255.255.0 host deny=* max connections=5 motd file=/etc/rsyncd/rsyncd.motd log format=%t%a%m%f%b syslog facility=local3 timeout=300 [svn] path=/var/www/svn list=yes ignore errors auth users=svnsyncer secrets file=/etc/rsyncd/rsyncd.secrets comment=SVN Repository
We will add the welcome message to /etc/rsyncd/rsyncd.motd
Welcome the SVN rsync service
Add user/password to /etc/rsyncd/rsyncd.secrets
svnsyncer:123456
And then, we will create our init start up script named /etc/init.d/rsyncd
#!/bin/sh
#
# Startup script for rsyncd daemon
#
# chkconfig: 35 90 10
# description: Server data for sync to other server
# processname rsync
# Source function library
. /etc/rc.d/init.d/functions
prog=rsync
conf=/etc/rsyncd/rsyncd.conf
case "$1" in
start)
echo -n "Starting rsync daemon: "
daemon /usr/bin/$prog --daemon --config=$conf
RETVAL=$?
echo
[ $RETVAL = 0 ] && touch /var/lock/subsys/$prog
;;
stop)
echo -n "Shutting down $prog: "
killproc -d 60 $prog
RETVAL=$?
echo
[ $RETVAL = 0 ] && rm -f /var/lock/subsys/$prog
;;
status)
status $prog
;;
restart)
$0 stop
$0 start
;;
*)
echo "Usage: $0 {start|stop|restart|status}"
exit 1
esac
exit 0
We will register and this service by
/sbin/chkconfig --add rsyncd /sbin/service rsyncd start
SSH no password login
Wednesday, December 19th, 2007Install sun JDK on Fedora 8
Friday, December 7th, 2007Download JDK from Sun’s website, and install it. The default install path should under /usr/java.
We create a new alternative entry:
/usr/sbin/alternatives --install
/usr/bin/java java
/usr/java/latest/jre/bin/java 2
and then we config the java alternative settings, select the sun version:
/usr/sbin/alternatives --config java
And we are good to go.
