Chapter 1. Installing the software

Packages:

We will describe the packages that Red Hat install if you request the Web Server group

at installation. We will select the minimal set we need.

Running rpm:

We will demonstrate the use of the rpm utility to install these packages.

Changes to system:

We will brieﬂy review what changes have been made to the system.

The web server group of packages

At installation the administrator is offered the choice of software to install. If the

installer opted for the Server installation option or selected Custom and selected the

Web Server group then all the necessary software is already installed.

Packages included in the Web Server group

httpd

The core web server package. Without this, we don’t have a web server.

httpd-manual

This is the on-line manual for the web server.

mod_python

This allows the use of Python programs alongside the web server in a manner

similar to, but more versatile than, classic CGI programs.

mod_perl

This is exactly the same as mod_python except that it supports the Perl program-

ming language.

mod_ssl

This provides support for HTTPS, the encrypted version of HTTP. This is cov-

ered in a different Computing Service course (Web Server Management: Securing

Access to Web Servers).

hwcrypto

This provides the facility to use hardware cryptographic systems to boost the

speed of HTTPS communications.

php

PHP provides another scripting language for the web server to replace CGI.

php-imap

This package provides the hooks for PHP to use the IMAP protocol to talk to

email systems.
