Using Templatized Installation
To use templatized installation, enter the installation settings for each remote
machine in a template file called
template.inf. You can then use the template to
install the web server on multiple machines from a single session on your local
machine.
The
template.inf file is found in the same directory as the setup program.
To run templatized installation, perform the following steps:
1. In the /.rhosts directory of your local machine, create an entry for each
remote machine where you will install the web server using the format
remote_machine_name username
For example, if the remote machine is
host1 on the domain example, and you
are logged in as
root, enter the following information:
host1.example.com root
2.
In the /etc/hosts.equiv directory of your local machine, create an entry for
each remote machine where you will install the web server using the format
remote_machine_name
For example, if the remote machine name is
host1 on the domain example,
enter the following information:
host1.example.com
3.
In the /.rhosts directory of each remote machine where you will install the
web server, create an entry for your local machine using the format
local_machine_name username
For example, if the local machine name is chewbacca on the domain example
and you are logged in as
root, enter the following information:
chewbacca.example.com root
