Haas PhD Students have two new servers and this page details their configuration.
Contents
IP Addresses
During the configuration phase the servers will be on:
- phd-pgsql: 128.32.66.163
- phd-lamp: 128.32.66.164
Base configurations
Both servers are running CentOS release 5.5 (cat /etc/*release*), which uses the Yum package manager (yum list installed | more). Both have Gnome on Xwindows available, as well as the following common packages:
- cpp 4.1.2-48.el5.
- ftp 0.17-35.el5
- httpd 2.2.3-43.el5.centos.3
- iptables 1.3.5-5.3.el5_4.1
- mysql 5.0.77-4.el5_5.4
- openssh 4.3p2-41.el5_5.1
- pam 0.99.6.2-6.el5_5.2
- perl 4:5.8.8-32.el5_5.2
- python 2.4.3-27.el5_5.3
- php 5.1.6-27.el5_5.3
- samba 3.0.33-3.29.el5_5.1
- squid 7:2.6.STABLE21-6.el5
Notable additional packages on pgsql are:
- postgresql.x86_64 8.1.22-1.el5_5.1
Package additions/upgrades/removals
On lamp:
- Upgrade python to version 3.1
- Install mediawiki
- Remove ftp
On pgsql:
- Remove httpd, mysql, ftp
Configuration
For both servers:
- Mount bear
- Configure Iptables
For lamp:
- Configure Apache
- Configure Mediawiki
- Add Mediawiki extensions
- Create new folder structure
For pgsql:
- Configure Postgre
Mounting bear
mount -t cifs //bear/ed_egan/ /mnt -o user=ed_egan
for the inclusion into fstab or other more sophisticated approaches there is a Centos help page.
Configure Apache
To start Apache: /etc/init.d/httpd start
To set Apache to start at boot: chkconfig --levels 235 httpd on
The main config file is: /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf
First, confirm your IP address: /sbin/ifconfig
Configure IpTables
For lamp we need a hole for port 80 for the webserver. For pgsql we need a hole for our clientware. General documentation is available in iptables from Centos
Check that iptables is running: /sbin/lsmod | grep ip_tables
View the rules either by: cat /etc/sysconfig/iptables /sub/iptables -L
Backup the old rules: cp /etc/sysconfig/iptables /etc/sysconfig/iptables.bak
Add a hole (or two):
/sbin/iptables -A INPUT -s 128.32.74.0/24 -p tcp --dport 80 -j ACCEPT
Save the table (so it will persist post a reboot): /sbin/service iptables save
Data
For lamp:
- Import Wiki pages
- Change links to pdfs and repository files
