  1. Basic Service & Settings pmli

  2. Basic Service e.g. http, ftp, etc.

  3. Most Common Flow • Install • Package, ports and tar-ball • Configuration • Program specified config file • rc.conf • Startup • Maintenance after installation of a service rc.conf: used for booting process

  4. Configuration Files (1/3) • Local-installed programs’ configuration files can be found in /usr/local/etc • Daemon → program-name.conf • dhcpd.conf • user-program → program-namerc • wgetrc • tinrc • Default config file usually installed with .sample or .default suffix • dhcpd.conf.sample or different suffix for different purpose • php.ini-dist • php.ini-recommended copy before use it Location of files And naming convention We got sample files accompanied!

  5. Configuration Files (2/3) • A program with many config files are usually located in /usr/local/etc/program-name/ • apach22 • postfix • Most config files have clear comment at the beginning or before each description • Most popular styles • name <space>value • name = value Read documents to know each option’s meaning Put into dir. if more than one file Example: proftpd.conf # Port 21 is the standard FTP port. Port 21 # To prevent DoS attacks, set the maximum # number of child processes to 30. ….. MaxInstances 30 Configuration files with comments inside and consistent naming convention

  6. Configuration Files (3/3) • Some with local effectiveness • Markup language-like <directory /path>setting-for-this-path…</direction> • Samba、rsync [xxxx] settings… [yyyy] settings…. Settings for specific conditions…

  7. RC Script Scripts for starting/stopping a service

  8. RC Script Automatically starting and… Dependency!! Dependency!! Dependency!! • Dependency between each service is described in header of the script • Rcorder is used to find out dependency ordering of each script • Each rc script define what to do when start/stop … • /etc/rc.subr defines what to do & check before/after start stop ….

  9. How to use rc script(1/2) Usage of RC script on a service: Take ntpd as an example • Example ntpd >/etc/rc.d/ntpd Usage: /etc/rc.d/ntpd [fast|force|one](start|stop|restart|rcvar|status|poll) • After booting… (rc.conf) • Pidfile: Record (master) process id of the service • Start / Stop / Restart (Start after stop) • Rcvar • Display which rc.conf variable are used to control the startup of service • Ex: ntpd_enable=“YES” Display settings in rc.conf – you can’t start a service without setting Enable to “YES”

  10. How to use rc script(2/2) • Status • Check the service is running or not • Reload • Reload configuration file if the service support • [One | fast | force] • One • set rcvar = yes • Start the service even if XXXX_enable=NO • Force • Set rcvar = yes and • Fast • Skip pid check Force a service to run…(skip rc.conf check) (skip pid check)

  11. Local installed service • After install a service by ports, ports will display • This port has installed the following startup scripts which may cause • these network services to be started at boot time. • /usr/local/etc/rc.d/pure-ftpd • Use path-to-rcscript rcvar command to know which variable should set to “YES” to enable this service • For further information, read comments from that script • # Add the following lines to /etc/rc.conf to enable pure-ftpd: • # • # pureftpd_enable="YES" • # • # For launch uploadscript daemon define • # pureftpd_upload_enable="YES" • # pureftpd_uploadscript="/full/path/to/launch_script"
