ARPMATS Project
How to set up ARPMATS
Here's one way of setting up ARPMATS
On the server
- Set up the Prerequisites.
- Ensure that PostgreSQL is running (if you've missed
this step, or if the arpmats database was not created by
the arpmats-server installation for some reason, it can
be created by running
/usr/share/arpmats-version/sql/setarp )
- Install the following packages
using a package manager (currently only RPM
supported, but hoping for more)
- arpmats-server
- arpmats-management
- arpmats-common
- arpmats-pmd-packageformat (choose one)
- arpmats-repod-repotype (choose one)
- Use the management interface to set up entries for
your clients (go to
http://servername/arpmats/ )
- Ensure that the following packages are in
one of your repositories (if necessary, make your
own local repository)
- arpmats-client
- arpmats-common
- arpmats-pmd-packageformat (choose one)
- arpmats-repod-repotype (choose one)
- Put something in your cfengine configuration which
ensures that arpmats-client is installed, and
runs arpdate_node [hopefully this will be
automated someday]
On the client
Assuming you have cfengine working, you don't need to do anything
