Servers:FourtyTwo

Stuff done while setting up the multi-purpose server, fourty-two.

• Basic FreeBSD 6.1-Release (Needs to be upgraded to 6.2)
  • Two users: root (secure password), admin (insecure). Both using Bash.
  • Enable both NICs: 159.28.230.96 (0), 192.168.0.42 (1).
  • Setup partitions. Need to look into logical partitions. 2T of space still unused.
    • /tmp: 500M
    • /usr: 5G
    • /var: 3G
    • /backup: 260G
  • Bash
  • SSHD
  • Sudo
  • Put admin user in group "wheel" and give wheel full sudo permissions in the sudoers file (using visudo).
• rsnapshot
  • Public ssh keys for root users between Quark and Fourty-two.
  • Edit /usr/local/etc/rsnapshot.conf. (White space is "tab" not "space." Applies to all of rsnapshot.conf.)
    • backup root@quark:/clients quark/
    • snapshot_root /backup/
    • cmd_ssh /usr/bin/ssh
    • #backup /home/ localhost/
    • #backup /etc/ localhost/
    • #backup /usr/local/ localhost/
  • Add cron job for rsnapshot to run peridically.
• wget
• Nagios
  • sudo portupgrade -N nagios
  • Copy cfgs from babbage:/usr/local/etc/nagios into fourty-two:/usr/local/etc/nagios/old-cfgs
  • Copy cfgs from nagios/old-cfgs to nagios/
  • Check cfgs: sudo nagios -v /usr/local/etc/nagios/nagios.cfg
  • Modify old config files to account for new version of nagios (was 1.x on Babbage, now using 2.0 on 42):
• Apache 2.2
  • sudo portupgrade -N apache
    • No to all except "apache2.2"
