Installing on RH4

I'd like to install the server on my RedHat 4 system. Would the FC5 RPM work, or should I compile from source? Thx, BM

May be a dumb question, but is there a way of installing hobbit via RPM and still have it installed in a location I decide ?

Thanks Mike, that looks like what I need.
However I'm getting some install errors.
I think I've installed all the prerequisites as outlined in install.html.
Most came from RedHat directly, but rrdtool I had to get the rpms
elsewhere. But when I went to install the rpm:
rpm -iv hobbit-4.2.0-5.el4.re.i386.rpm
warning: hobbit-4.2.0-5.el4.re.i386.rpm: V3 DSA signature: NOKEY, key ID
ba7a4a9e
error: Failed dependencies:
fping is needed by hobbit-4.2.0-5.el4.re.i386
librrd.so.0 is needed by hobbit-4.2.0-5.el4.re.i386
So I installed fping from source, and verified it works..
which fping
/usr/local/sbin/fping
But I still get the same errors. So it didn't recognize fping, and it's
also missing some librrd library?
Any ideas?

rrdtool is a package you need to install. see Dag Apt Repository, http://dag.wieers.com/apt/ rpm checks installed RPMs (fping is not installed as a RPM, in this cae, thus failed the dependency test). RPM doesn't really check whether fping cmd is available or not (the complains is about the package not the cmd) If you are confident the stuff is there, you can always override it by '--nodeps' during 'rpm -ivh'

For RHEL4, try these: http://centos.karan.org/el4/extras/stable/i386/RPMS/repodata/repoview/rrdtool-0-1.0.49-4.el4.kb.html http://rpmforge.net/user/packages/fping/ rpm -Uvh \ http://centos.karan.org/el4/extras/stable/i386/RPMS/rrdtool-1.0.49-4.el4.kb.i386.rpm http://apt.sw.be/redhat/el4/en/i386/RPMS.dag/fping-2.4-1.b2.2.el4.rf.i386.rpm -- -mike

I have some issues with the spec file/RPMS distributed on the site, maintain the package in Mandriva (eg Mandriva 2007.0 has hobbit-4.2.0 - with the post-release patches as of a few days ago - in the contrib tree), and rebuild for RHEL4. I haven't updated the ones here since the 4.2.0 release, but will look at doing it some time this week: http://anorien.warwick.ac.uk/mirrors/buchan/hobbit/ Regards, Buchan -- Buchan Milne ISP Systems Specialist B.Eng,RHCE(803004789010797),LPIC-2(LPI000074592)
