246# Install the Python eggs and Ruby gems and PEAR/PECL doohickeys that are on

248# The general mode of operation will be to run the "list" command
249# on both servers, see what the differences are, check if those diffs
250# are packaged up as rpms, and install them (rpm if possible, native otherwise)
251# - Look at /usr/lib/python2.6/site-packages and
252#           /usr/lib64/python2.6/site-packages for Python eggs and modules.
253#   There will be a lot of gunk that was installed from packages;
254#   easy-install.pth will tell you what was easy_installed.
255#   First use 'yum search' to see if the relevant package is now available
256#   as an RPM, and install that if it is.  If not, then use easy_install.
257# - Look at `gem list` for Ruby gems.
258#   Again, use 'yum search' and prefer RPMs, but failing that, 'gem install'.
259#       ezyang: rspec-rails depends on rspec, and will override the Yum
260#       package, so... don't use that RPM yet
261# - Look at `pear list` for Pear fruits (or whatever they're called).
262#   Yet again, 'yum search' for RPMs before resorting to 'pear install'.  Note
263#   that for things in the beta repo, you'll need 'pear install package-beta'.
264#   (you might get complaints about the php_scripts module; ignore them)
265# - Look at `pecl list` for PECL things.  'yum search', and if you must,
266#   'pecl install' needed items.
267    # Automating this... will require a lot of batonning between
268    # the servers. Probably best way to do it is to write an actual
269    # script.

274# Install the credentials.  There are a lot of things to remember here:
275#   o This will be different if you're setting up our build/update server.
276#   o You probably installed the machine keytab long ago
277    ls -l /etc/krb5.keytab
278#   o Use ktutil to combine the host/scripts.mit.edu and
279#     host/scripts-vhosts.mit.edu keys with host/this-server.mit.edu in
280#     the keytab.  Do not use 'k5srvutil change' on the combined keytab
281#     or you'll break the other servers. (real servers only)
282#   o The daemon.scripts keytab
283    ls -l /etc/daemon.keytab
284#   o The SSL cert private key (real servers only)
285#   o The LDAP password for the signup process (real servers only)
286#   o The SQL password for the signup process (real servers only)
287#   o The LDAP keytab for this server, which will be used later (real servers only)
288#   o Replace the ssh host keys with the ones common to all scripts servers (real servers only)
289#   o You'll install an LDAP certificate signed by the scripts CA later (real servers only)
290#   o Make sure root's .k5login is correct
291    cat /root/.k5login
292#   o Make sure logview's .k5login is correct (real servers only)
293
294# If you are setting up a test server, pay attention to
295# /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts and do not bind scripts' IP address.
296# You will also need to modify:
297#   o /etc/ldap.conf
298#       add: host scripts.mit.edu
299#   o /etc/nss-ldapd.conf
300#       replace: uri *****

304#            BASE dc=scripts,dc=mit,dc=edu
305#   o /etc/httpd/conf.d/vhost_ldap.conf
