The pciutils package contains various utilities for inspecting and setting devices
connected to the PCI bus. [We use other methods]

The rmt utility provides remote network access to make backup. [Security risks since
rmt depend of rsh to work]
Software that must be installed after installation of the Server
To be able to compile programs on your server you must install the following RPMs software.
This part of the installation is very important and requires that you install all related packages
described bellow. Those software are on your Red Hat 6.1 Part 1 CD-ROM under RedHat/RPMS
directory and represent the base necessary software needed on Linux to compile programs.
Step 1
First, we mount the CD-ROM drive and move to the RPMS subdirectory of the CD-ROM.
·
To mount you CD-ROM drive and move to RPM directory, use the command:
[root@deep /]# mount /dev/cdrom /mnt/cdrom/
[root@deep /]# cd /mnt/cdrom/RedHat/RPMS/
This is the package that we need to be able to compile program on the Linux system. Remember,
this is the minimum package that permits you to compile most of the tarballs program available
for Linux. Other compiler packages exist on the Red Hat CD-ROM, so verify with the README
file that come with the tarballs program you want to install if you receive an error messages
during compilation of the specific software.
autoconf-2.13-5.noarch.rpm
m4-1.4-12.i386.rpm
automake-1.4-5.noarch.rpm
dev86-0.14.9-1.i386.rpm
bison-1.28-1.i386.rpm
byacc-1.9-11.i386.rpm
cdecl-2.5-9.i386.rpm
cpp-1.1.2-24.i386.rpm
cproto-4.6-2.i386.rpm
ctags-3.2-1.i386.rpm
egcs -1.1.2-24.i386.rpm
ElectricFence-2.1-1.i386.rpm
flex-2.5.4a-7.i386.rpm
gdb-4.18-4.i386.rpm
kernel-headers -2.2.12-20.i386.rpm
glibc-devel-2.1.2-11.i386.rpm
make-3.77-6.i386.rpm
patch-2.5-9.i386.rpm
NOTE: It is better to install software describe above all together if you dont want to receive error
dependencies message during RPM install.
Step 2
Install all the above needed software with one RPM command.
·
The RPM command to install all software together is:
[root@deep RPMS]# rpm -Uvh autoconf-2.13-5.noarch.rpm m4-1.4-12.i386.rpm automake-1.4-
5.noarch.rpm dev86-0.14.9-1.i386.rpm bison-1.28-1.i386.rpm byacc-1.9-11.i386.rpm cdecl-
