UNPACKING ========= to unpack the helpers: cd /usr/local gunzip -c /path/to/helpers/v40f-helpers-v2.tgz | tar xpf - If you already have a /usr/local/... hierarchy, you may wish to unpack somewhere else and then compare to avoid overwriting existing files. CONTENTS ======== v40f-helpers-v2 contains the following components: programs: bash 4.1.0(1)-release perl v5.10.1 less 436 make 3.81 openssl 1.0.1f-dev prngd 0.9.29 screen 4.0.3 openssh 6.4p1 top 3.8beta1 trace 1.25 libraries: libz 1.2.8 openssl 1.0.1 Instructions for OpenSSH ------------------------- After unpacking the helpers, run "/usr/local/bin/install-sshd.pl". This will create the "sshd" group and user (necessary for privilege separation), create symlinks for the init-scripts from /sbin/rc3.d to /usr/local/etc/init.d, create the initial prngd seed file, and start the services. You will almost certainly need to create ~/.hushlogin in order to suppress the "Last login:" message, which causes "scp" to fail. PATHS: - add "/usr/local/bin" to your $PATH - set MANPATH to "/usr/share/man:/usr/local/man:/usr/local/share/man:/usr/local/openssl/man"
