All packages should be available in a full install of Red Hat Enterprise Linux ES.

Table 3: Red Hat Enterprise Linux ES File Package Requirements

VersionRequired File Packages

Red Hat Enterprise Linux ES version 3 (Update 6)

krb5-libs-1.2.7-47.i386.rpm

XFree86-libs-4.3.0-97.EL.i386.rpm

Red Hat Enterprise Linux ES version 4 (Update 2)

To verify that the file package krb5-libs-1.3.4-17.i386.rpm is installed, use the following command:

hostname% rpm --queryformat "%{NAME}.%{VERSION}-%{RELEASE}.%{ARCH}\n" --query krb5-libs

You can install each package individually via rpm, from the original Red Hat Enterprise Linux ES distribution. To install the file package xorg-x11-libs-6.8.2-1.EL.13.20.i386.rpm, use the following command:

hostname% rpm --install xorg-x11-libs-6.8.2-1.EL.13.20.i386.rpm

Installing the JUNOScope Software

This section describes how to install the JUNOScope Software from the JUNOScope software download page. For more information about installing the JUNOScope software, see the JUNOScope Software User Guide.

Downloading the JUNOScope Software from the Software Download Page

To download the JUNOScope software from the Juniper Networks Web site and start the JUNOScope installation, follow these steps:

  1. Using a Web browser, go to the following location:
  2. Log in to the Juniper Networks authentication system using the username (generally your e-mail address) and password supplied by a Juniper Networks representative.
  3. Download the appropriate JUNOScope software to the server workstation.
  4. Start the JUNOScope installation program:
    hostname% download-directory/jtk-install-9.6R4.X-sunos5-sparc.sh install-directory
    orhostname% download-directory/jtk-install-9.6R4.X-linux2-i386.sh install-directory

Replace download-directory with the directory into which you downloaded the JUNOScope software from the software download page.

jtk-install-9.6R4.X-sunos5-sparc.sh or jtk-install-9.6R4.X-linux2-i386.sh is the JUNOScope software file. Where X is the current software spin number.

Replace install-directory with the directory in which to install the JUNOScope software. If you do not specify an installation directory, the software is installed in the current directory.

Reconfiguring the JUNOScope Software

You can change the following JUNOScope software installation settings without rerunning the installation program. For more information about these settings, see the JUNOScope Software User Guide.

You cannot change some settings, such as passwords. To change JUNOScope software settings, use the following command:

hostname%install-directory/jtk/bin/jtk-setup.sh

Reinstalling or Upgrading the JUNOScope Software

The process for reinstalling or upgrading the JUNOScope software is the same as for installing the software. To install the JUNOScope software, see Downloading the JUNOScope Software from the Software Download Page.

To reinstall or upgrade JUNOScope software, you must use the same user ID as the one used for the currently installed software.

Uninstalling the JUNOScope Software

To uninstall the JUNOScope software, follow these steps:

  1. Stop the JUNOScope software and database by changing to the directory where you installed the JUNOScope software and typing the following command:
    hostname% install-directory/jtk/rc.d/jtk stop
  2. Remove the JUNOScope software by typing the following command:
    hostname% rm-rf install-directory

Warning: The rm-rf install-directory command removes the JUNOScope install-directory, including all data.
