YASSP

Express installation, Introduction


For your convenience, the most commonly used package have been clustered together. Installing this cluster will cleanup Solaris, install the SECclean package as described in the next chapter, but also install GNU gzip, GNU RCS, tcpwrapper with rpcbind, tripwire and some cronjob doing some daily checking/archiving/logs rotation known as PARCdaily.

Special note for SSH
Portable OpenSSH 2.3.0p1 is included in YASSP, but only for Solaris 8, and will be installed by default as their is no licensing problem with it. This version of ssh was configured at the compilation time with the following options: ./configure --prefix=/opt/local --with-tcp-wrappers --without-rsh --with-ssl-dir=/opt/local/lib --sysconfdir=/etc.
Manpages are also available in a pre-formated (/usr/share/cat) as the troff source use the -mandoc macro non existent under Solaris.

It is an easy way to install a secure server, which will be accessible through the network by SSH only (If installed), will do a minimum of daily logs rotation/monitoring, will archive changes done to specific systems files and generate a (simple) daily report.

All these packages are documented in the next chapters, please read them to understand what modification will be done to your system.
