Configuration script for Xymon

This script asks a few questions and builds a Makefile to compile Xymon

Checking your make-utility
Checking pre-requisites for building Xymon

Checking for fping ...
Xymon has a built-in ping utility (xymonping)
However, it is not yet fully stable and therefore it
may be best to use the external fping utility instead.
I found fping in /usr/sbin/fping
Do you want to use it [Y/n] ?
y
Checking to see if '/usr/sbin/fping 127.0.0.1' works ...
127.0.0.1 is alive
OK, will use '/usr/sbin/fping' for ping tests
NOTE: If you are using an suid-root wrapper, make sure the 'xymond'
      user is also allowed to run fping without having to enter passwords.
      For 'sudo', add something like this to your 'sudoers' file:
      xymon ALL=(ALL) NOPASSWD: /usr/sbin/fping



Checking for PCRE ...
Compiling with PCRE library works OK
Linking with PCRE library works OK


Checking for C-ARES library ...
Compiling with c-ares library works OK
C-ARES version: Found 1.25.0 - OK, require 1.5.1
Linking with c-ares library works OK


Checking for RRDtool ...
Compiling with RRDtool works OK
Linking with RRDtool works OK


Checking for OpenSSL ...
Compiling with SSL library works OK
Linking with SSL library works OK
Checking if your SSL library has SSLv2 enabled
SSLv2 support disabled (dont worry, all systems should use SSLv1 or TLS)
Checking if your SSL library has SSLv3 enabled
SSLv3 support disabled (dont worry, all systems should use SSLv1 or TLS)

Xymon can use the OpenSSL library to test SSL-enabled services
like https-encrypted websites, POP3S, IMAPS, NNTPS and TELNETS.
If you have the OpenSSL library installed, I recommend that you enable this.

Do you want to be able to test SSL-enabled services (y) ?
y



Checking for LDAP ...
WARNING: Cannot compile with LDAP
WARNING: Cannot link with LDAP
(Open)LDAP include- or library-files not found.
If you want to perform detailed LDAP tests (queries), you need
to install an LDAP client library that Xymon can use.
OpenLDAP can be found at http://www.openldap.org/

If you have OpenLDAP installed, use the "--ldapinclude DIR" and "--ldaplib DIR"
options to configure to specify where they are.

Continuing with LDAP support disabled.


Checking for clock_gettime() requiring librt ...


Checking for Large File Support ...
Large File Support OK


Setting up for a Xymon server


What userid will be running Xymon [xymon] ?

Found passwd entry for user xymon:x:1000:1000::/home/xymon:/bin/bash


Where do you want the Xymon installation [/home/xymon] ?
/opt/xymon
OK, will configure to use /opt/xymon as the Xymon toplevel directory


What URL will you use for the Xymon webpages [/xymon] ?



Where to put the Xymon CGI scripts [/opt/xymon/cgi-bin] ?
(Note: This is the filesystem directory - we will get to the URL shortly)



What is the URL for the Xymon CGI directory [/xymon-cgi] ?
(Note: This is the URL - NOT the filesystem directory)



********************** SECURITY NOTICE ****************************
If your Xymon server is accessible by outsiders, then you should
restrict access to the CGI scripts that handle enable/disable of
hosts, and acknowledging of alerts. The easiest way to do this is
to put these in a separate CGI directory and require a password to
access them.
Even if your Xymon server is on a secured, internal network, you
may want to have some operations (like disabling a host) be password-
protected - that lets you see who disabled or acknowledged an alert.

Where to put the Xymon Administration CGI scripts [/opt/xymon/cgi-secure] ?
(Note: This is the filesystem directory - we will get to the URL shortly)



What is the URL for the Xymon Administration CGI directory [/xymon-seccgi] ?
(Note: This is the URL - NOT the filesystem directory)



** Note that you may need to modify your webserver configuration.
** After installing, see /opt/xymon/server/etc/xymon-apache.conf for an example configuration.


To generate Xymon availability reports, your webserver
must have write-access to a directory below the Xymon
top-level directory. I can set this up if you tell me
what group-ID your webserver runs with. This is typically
'nobody' or 'apache' or 'www-data'

What group-ID does your webserver use [nobody] ?
apache


Where to put the Xymon logfiles [/var/log/xymon] ?



What is the name of this host [cb-ol10] ?



What is the IP-address of this host [127.0.0.1] ?
172.24.19.42


Where should I install the Xymon man-pages (/usr/local/man) ?




Using Linux Makefile settings



Created Makefile with the necessary information to build Xymon
Some defaults are used, so do look at the Makefile before continuing.

Configuration complete - now run make (GNU make) to build the tools
