My Instructions assume 64-bit fedora 20.
Disable SELinux
SELinux always seems to cause one problem or another and so I usually just disable it. Edit /etc/selinux/config and change the line:
SELINUX=enforcing
to
SELINUX=disabled
Install Miscellaneous Utilities
gnome-tweak-tool is used to make some modification to the gnome desktop. Install it with the following command:
yum install gnome-tweak-tool
Unison is a tool I like for synchronizing files between different workstations. I use it as a simple backup tool and to keep documentation and downloads synchronized between my workstations. Install it with the following command:
yum install unison
Some other goodies:
yum install git nmap wget
Install Chrome
To install chrome (stable and 64-bit version), we need to add a repository by creating the file:
/etc/yum.repos.d/google-chrome.repo
with the following contents:
[google-chrome]
name=google-chrome
baseurl=http://dl.google.com/linux/chrome/rpm/stable/x86_64
enabled=1
gpgcheck=1
gpgkey=https://dl-ssl.google.com/linux/linux_signing_key.pub
Install the stable version of chrome with the following command:
yum install google-chrome-stable
Add RPM Fusion and Livna Repositories
Fedora is very strict about only offering open source software. Some useful software that is not open source is still available to be installed and much of it is available in the RPM Fusing and Livan repositories. We will add these two repositories with the following commands:
yum localinstall --nogpgcheck http://download1.rpmfusion.org/free/fedora/rpmfusion-free-release-20.noarch.rpm
yum localinstall --nogpgcheck http://download1.rpmfusion.org/nonfree/fedora/rpmfusion-nonfree-release-20.noarch.rpm
rpm -ivh http://rpm.livna.org/livna-release.rpm
rpm --import /etc/pki/rpm-gpg/RPM-GPG-KEY-livna
Install Multimedia Applications and Codecs
Install codecs for listening to music and watching videos with the following command:
yum install gstreamer gstreamer-plugins-good gstreamer-plugins-bad gstreamer-plugins-ugly gstreamer-plugins-bad-nonfree ffmpeg ffmpeg-libs gstreamer-ffmpeg libdvdread libdvdnav lsdvd libdvdcss vlc audacity
Install Flash
In case you want/need flash, install with the following commands:
rpm -ivh http://linuxdownload.adobe.com/adobe-release/adobe-release-x86_64-1.0-1.noarch.rpm
rpm --import /etc/pki/rpm-gpg/RPM-GPG-KEY-adobe-linux
yum install flash-plugin
Install Graphics Applications
Install various graphics applications for working with images with the following command:
yum install gimp gimp-data-extras gimpfx-foundry gimp-lqr-plugin gimp-resynthesizer gnome-xcf-thumbnailer ImageMagick nautilus-image-converter inkscape dia
Install PostgreSQL
Install PostgreSQL with the following command:
yum install postgresql-server postgresql postgresql-contrib postgresql-jdbc pgadmin3
Initialize the PostgreSQL database with the following command:
/bin/postgresql-setup initdb
Now we want to start the service and then enable it to start on reboot with the following commands:
systemctl start postgresql.service
systemctl enable postgresql.service
We can verify that PostgreSQL is started by su'ing to the postgres user and connet to the PostgreSQL database with the following command:
psql
Since we're logged in, we should set a password for the postgres user with the following command at the postgres# prompt:
alter user postgres with passpord 'new_password';
Now we can exit out with the \q command.
We want to configure PostgreSQL so that applications and users can connect to the database on localhost. To do this, we need to modify the file:
/var/lib/pgsql/data/pg_hba.conf
and change the line:
host all all 127.0.0.1/32 ident
to:
host all all 127.0.0.1/32 md5
After this change, we need to restart PostgreSQL with the following command:
sysemctl restart postgresql.service
We can now connect to the PostgreSQL database with the following command:
psql -U some_user -h localhost some_database
Install OpenLDAP
I actually gave up on this and will go back to using the OpenDS server for now even though this project seems to have gone away when Oracle bought Sun Microsystems. ApacheDS looked like an interesting option until I saw that is wants to pull in 180 dependencies.
Install the OpenLDAP server with the following command:
yum install openldap openldap-clients openldap-servers
Now we want to start the service and then enable it to start on reboot with the following commands:
systemctl start slapd.service
systemctl enable slapd.service
systemctl start slapd.service
systemctl enable slapd.service
Install Apache
Install the Apache web server with the following command:
yum install httpd httpd-devel httpd-manual mod_ssl
Now we want to start the service and then enable it to start on reboot with the following commands:
systemctl start httpd.service
systemctl enable httpd.service
Configuration varies quite a bit depending on usage and is left as an exercise for the reader...
Install Tomcat
Install the Apache Tomcat application server with the following command:
yum install tomcat tomcat-admin-webapps tomcat-docs-webapp tomcat-javadoc tomcat-webapps tomcat-native
Now we want to start the service and then enable it to start on reboot with the following commands:
systemctl start tomcat.service
systemctl enable tomcat.service
Configuration varies quite a bit depending on usage and is left as an exercise for the reader...
Install VirtualBox
VirtualBox: when you want to try out other distro's or just have to run something in Windows.
yum install VirtualBox

ReplyDeleteLangkah seperti apa untuk melakukan cara menggugurkan kandungan dengan aman dengan cepat dan akurat serta berhasil ? Pada dasarnya tindakan untuk melakukan cara menggugurkan kandungan sangat berbahaya sekali . Maka dari itulah ada jangan sepelekan dan menggunakan cara yang asal-asalan . Meskipun ada sebagian orang yang mempercayai bisa untuk cara menggugurkan kandungan 4 bulan seperti menggunakan rempah bumbu dapur semacam jahe , kunyit asam , asam jawa atau manjakani . Namun itu hanya sebuah opini atau mitos ataupun hanya kebetulan saja . Tindakan medis seperti kuret adalah langkah terbaik untuk masalah ini . ciri ciri pubertas pada perempuan dapat dilihat dari perubahan sikap dan fisik . Kapan wanita akan mengalami gejala menopause . Dan satu hal lagi perempuan sangat penting untuk merawat daerah kewanitaannya , cara menjaga daerah kewanitaan agar tetap rapat harus dimulai sejak dini
