Installing and configuring the OS

Please review the [http://robin.crecom.com.au/knowledge/Installation/Installing%20Linux%20Redhat%209%20machine%20for%20Control.htm Installing Linux on Redhat 9] for choosing with components are required during install time. It may be used as a guide for Fedora installations.

Installing and configuring CONTROL

Edit /etc/defaults/useradd such that the following variables are set and that rest can remain the same.

GROUP=3232
HOME=/u/cc/usr

Create the following group

# groupadd -g 3232 control

Insure /etc/skel/.vnc/ exists containing passwd (generated from vncpasswd) and xstartup which is an executable script:

export NODEID="vnc$DISPLAY"
sleep 5
exec fvwm

Create user ccc

# adduser ccc
# passwd ccc

Replace the contents of /etc/skel/.bash_profile with the following

logname=`logname`
. /u/cc/usr/common.sh
if [ "$logname" != "" ]; then
  if [ "$DISPLAY" = "" ]; then
    exec start
  fi
fi

Package control programs on sam

/cc/lib

Then execute:

# ldconfig

VPN

Copy vpn_exetel.tar.gz from /home/usr/michael/vpn/, extract it using the following commands:

Then as root accept the fingerprint:

# ssh 220.233.135.250
The authenticity of host '220.233.135.250 (220.233.135.250)' can't be established.

Make console (DISPLAY=0) a VNC server

Edit /etc/X11/xorg.conf

Section "Module"
        Load "vnc"      # Add this line
End Section
Section "Screen"
        Option "PasswordFile" "/u/cc/usr/ccc/.vnc/passwd"       # Add this line
End Section

Installing FVWM

You'll need to locate files fvwm-2.4.19-1.i386.rpm and libstroke-0.5.1-4.fc4.i386.rpm which are available on sam.

# yum install compat-readline43 gtk+ imlib
# rpm -Uvh fvwm-2.4.19-1.i386.rpm libstroke-0.5.1-4.fc4.i386.rpm

Need to update Xclients such that FVWM is started when local user logs in.

# cd /etc/X11/xinit
# mv Xclients Xclients.bak
# vi Xclients

Update Xclients to only execute FVWM, the orginal (Xclients.bak) file can be modified to do the below.

rm -f $HOME/Xrootenv.0
rm -f /tmp/fvwmrc* 2>/dev/null
. /u/cc/usr/common.sh
exec /usr/bin/fvwm

Finally give Xclients execute permissions

chmod +x Xclients

Configuring FVWM

mkdir /etc/X11/fvwm2

Copy from system.fvwm2rc from /u/install or from a client's system and place it in the newly created directory. Also place a symlink to system.fvwm2rc in /etc/

ln -s /etc/X11/fvwm2/system.fvwm2rc /etc/
