This is the master daemon for the monitoring project. It first listen to the RS485 network and if there is no backup master (slave) this daemon will take the hand!

2. Install packages

       aptitude update && aptitude install automake make libtool flex byacc bison g++ libldap2-dev texinfo

3. Compile and install libconfig

       ./configure && make && make install)

4. Reload libraries

       ldconfig

5. Configure compile and install acdsn (-DACCESS or -DCONTROL or -DDRIVE in Makefile.am and then ./configure && make && make install)
   • copy binary in /usr/bin/acdsn
   • copy init file in /etc/init.d/acdsn and run update-rc.d acdsn
6. configure files in /etc/acdsn (especially /dev/ttyS?)
7. keep the server on time

       aptitude install ntpdate and then execute ntpdate ntp.metas.ch

8. modify the /etc/default/tmpfs file to mount heavy files/directories into memory
9. add the tmpfs init script into /etc/init.d and update-rc.d tmpfs defaults 10

If you want to make a automatic reverse ssh tunnel, you can add:

1. install expect package to create a remote ssh tunnel

       aptitude install expect

2. create a certificat

       ssh-keygen -t rsa

3. export the public key on the remote host

       cat id-rsa.pub >> authorized_keys

4. configure root bashrc

       export EDITOR=vi

5. add reverse ssh tunnel connection in crontab

       */5 * * * * /bin/bash /media/data/connect.sh -u sbolay -t bolay.co -e /media/data/.add-rsa -l 1091 -r 9031
       */5 * * * * /bin/bash /media/data/connect.sh -u sbolay -t bolay.co -e /media/data/.add-rsa -l 22 -r 9023

If libconfig is missing, please

• configure (./configure) it,
• compile (make) it from the libconfig (1.4b4) folder then,
• check (make check) it and
• then install it (sudo make install).
• Finally you may have to call ldconfig alone or /usr/bin/ldconfig -l /usr/local/lib/libconfig.so.9
