FreeBSD installation compiles and installs its own version of Apache, GD and PHP. So before installing in FreeBSD machines, please check that the following packages were installed.
The following 3rd-party libraries will be used by gd if found by configure. While gd will compile and install even without these, we suggest that at least zlib and libpng are installed, and recommend that freetype and jpeg are installed as well:
Once you have ensured that the above packages are all available in your FreeBSD machine, follow the steps given below to install :
Unzip the downloaded ZIP file.
Execute the bin file
_4_2_0_SP_FreeBSD.bin
The first step in the installation is to choose the type of installation. You will be given two options:
You can install in a newly created user account, where the user account will be automatically created with root privileges
You can install in the current user account without root privileges.
Choose option 1, if you want to have root privileges so that it can be configured to backup all the users data, MySQL, System Files etc. Note that will be installed as a daemon process and will automatically start when the system boots up. You can START and STOP by running the command "/etc/rc.d/ start/stop".
Choose option 2, if you want to only backup files in the current user directories. Note that will be installed in the current user directory and has to be manually started every time the machine is rebooted. You can START and STOP by running the script start.sh and stop.sh
-
If you chose option 1 in the above step, then you will either be asked to give the root password, or the installation will quit and ask you to login as root and start the installation process again. Once you give the root password, you will be asked to provide a password for the user account which will be created. Note that will be installed as a daemon process and will automatically start when the system boots up. You can START and STOP by running the command "/etc/rc.d/ start/stop".
If you chose option 2, then you will be taken to the next step directly. Note that will be installed in the current user directory and has to be manually started every time the machine is rebooted. You can START and STOP by running the script start.sh and stop.sh
Read through the License Agreement carefully. If you agree, enter Yes to continue with the installation. If you do not agree, enter No to abort the installation.
By default will be installed in the "Current Directory". Setup will install under "" in the "Current Directory" directory. To install in a different directory, enter the absolute path for installation. Note that setup will create the "" directory under the directory you entered.
-
can be upgraded to v4.2 from version 4.1/4.0
Configure as :
You need to choose one of the options (Client-Server, Client, Server, Replication Server). The four modes are explained in detail below.
Client-Server - This option will configure this installation to run in full peer mode, which means can function both as a client backing up local files/folders to other peers and also as a server which can be used for backing up data from other peers.
Client - This option will configure this installation to run only as a client (half peer), which means can backup local files/folders to other peers but cannot accept backup data from other peers.
Server - This option will configure this installation to run only as a server (half peer), which means can accept backup data from other peers but cannot backup local files/folders to other peers.
Replication Server – Other backup servers can replicate their data to this server for redundancy.
Assign A ID:
ID is the unique name with which your installation is identified. By default, it takes your machine name as the ID. But we recommend giving your email id as the ID so that it is globally unique. Here you will be provided with these options:
"Do you want to identify your machine name by other than hostname"
If you enter "y/Y" then following text will displayed in terminal to enter ID.
"Enter ID"
Enter the ID for your installation. We recommend using your email id for this.
Note: The ID value is case insensitive. Hence, the ' ID' you have entered will be automatically converted to lower case.
Customer Name: Enter valid Customer Name. The Customer name is the 'name' under which your client is categorized (on the backup server). By default, this is set to "Trial Customer". Your service provider can change this at his end, as required. If your service provider has given you a customer name, please enter it exactly as provided. Otherwise, please leave this as the default "Trial Customer".
Configure Server backup location:
By default, Server will store the backup data from the clients to the "<INSTALLATION_DIR>/" directory. If you want to change the server's default backup location, here you will be provided with these options.
"Do you want to change the server's default backup location"
If you enter "y/Y" then following text will displayed in terminal to enter Server backup location.
"Enter the absolute path for Server's backup location"
Enter the backup location for this server here.
Enable HTTPS based WebConsole access:
supports 'https protocol' to access the webconsole in a secured manner. HTTPS is nothing but a combination of normal HTTP interaction over an encrypted Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) to ensure reasonable protection from eavesdroppers and man-in-the-middle attacks.
uses the TCP port 6061 for https based WebConsole access. Hence if you choose https support, then you can access the WebConsole through "https://<machine_name or IP_address>:6061". And also, if you try to access the webconsole through http://<machine name>:<webconsole port>, then you will be automatically redirected to https://<machine name>:<HTTPS port> url.
Note : To enable https support in , please ensure that openssl package is installed on your system before you enable https support. You can download the latest openssl version from http://www.openssl.org/source/.
Web Console Authentication:
Since 's user interface is browser based you need to configure a username and password to login to Web Console. Note that you can add additional users, delete users, change password etc. from the Web Console UI after the installation.
Configure Backup Server Port and UI Communication Port
By default uses the 'Backup Server Port' 32004, which is used for all the client-server communications like Backup/Restore, and the 'UI Communication Port' 32005, which is used for communication between the WebConsole and the Application. If you want to have using other than the default ports, here you will be provided with these options.
"Do you want to change these ports from default value"
If you enter "y/Y" then following text will displayed in terminal to enter 's Backup Server Port and the UI Communication Port.
"Please enter a numerical whole number value for Backup Server Port"
Enter the Backup Server Port value here.
"Please enter a numerical whole number value for UI Communication Port"
Enter the UI Communication Port value here.
Web Server Port
's user interface is browser based. By default Web server is configured to run on port 6060 and 6061 (for HTTPS). From your browser you will have to type http://<Your Machine Name>:6060 to start the Web Console.
This installs the product and complete the installation process. After successful installation, you are provided with an option to start the . After the installation, You can start by executing the script "start.sh" from the directory "<INSTALLATION_HOME>//".
After successful installation, you can open the Web Console from your browser by typing http://<Your Machine Name>:6060. You will have to login to the Web Console using the username and password you provided in the " Web Console Authentication" step during the installation.
