DNS
Examples for DNS assume ISC BIND configuration format.
An example of real life configuration for CLD:
elanor IN A 192.168.128.1 IN AAAA fec0:0:0:1:0:0:c0a8:8001 _cld._udp IN SRV 10 100 8081 elanor
The port (8081 above) has to correspond to the number configured for cld daemon with -p option. Port 8081 is a common default. Weight and priority (10 and 100) are not important if only one CLD node is used.
An example of real life configuration for tabled:
niphredil IN A 192.168.128.9 IN AAAA fec0::1:219:b9ff:fe58:7ad6 *.niphredil IN CNAME niphredil
This is necessary if the expected client uses hostnames to select buckets (default in Boto, called SubdomainCallingFormat).
Syslog
/etc/rsyslog.conf:
local3.* /var/log/local3.log
In a traditional syslog, the filename has to be separated by tabs, but in Fedora rsyslog takes spaces too. Don't forget to say "service rsyslog reload" (or send kill -HUP by hand). Thereafter, watch logs with "tail -f /var/log/local3.log". On longer-running systems, you'll need to establish a log rotation somehow (see "man logrotate" on Fedora).
Chunk
This example assumes Fedora 13, but with hand-edited /etc/chunkd.conf.
/etc/sysconfig/chunkd:
OPTS="-C /etc/chunkd.conf"
/etc/chunkd.conf:
<Listen> <Port>8082</Port> </Listen> <PID>/var/run/chunkd.pid</PID> <Path>/q/chunk-default</Path> <!-- We use the low digits of IP address for ID for now. --> <NID>13</NID> <InfoPath>/chunk-default/13</InfoPath>
Don't forget mkdir /q/chunk-default.
