SunScreen SKIP User's Guide, Release 1.1

Installing the Software for the First Time

This section provides instructions for installing SunScreen SKIP on Solaris for SPARC Platforms, Versions 2.4, 2.5, or 2.5.1 and Solaris for the Intel Platform.

To install and run the software, you must be able to become root on your local system and know the IP address of the machine on which SKIP is to be installed. Ask your systems administrator for the IP address of your machine. To install the software for the first time or if you are installing it without saving the configurations, follow these steps:

  1. Open a terminal window and become root.

  2. Mount the CD-ROM through the file manager by typing


    volcheck
    

    Note -

    If you are not using vold on your system, type

    # mount -F hsfs -oro /dev/dsk/c0t6d0s0 /mnt

    The device name or the mount point or both depends on your local system configuration.


  3. Go to the directory on the CD-ROM for your OS. (The examples assume a machine with only one CD-ROM.)

    Solaris for the SPARC Platform:


    cd /cdrom/cdrom0/sparc
    

    Solaris for the Intel Platform:


    cd /cdrom/cdrom0/x86
    

    Note -

    If you have mounted the CD-ROM manually, replace /cdrom/cdrom0 with /mnt.


  4. Type the standard Solaris operating system pkgadd command to add all packages:


    pkgadd  -d `pwd`
    
  5. You will be prompted with the following menu of packages to install.


     1 SICGbdcdr	SKIP Bulk Data Crypt 1.1-FCS Software
     	(sparc) 1.1-FCS
     2 SICGcrc2	SKIP RC2 Crypto Module 1.1-FCS Software
     	(sparc) 1.1-FCS
     3 SICGcrc4 	SKIP RC4 Crypto Module 1.1-FCS Software
     	(sparc) 1.1-FCS
     4 SICGes	SKIP End System 1.1-FCS Software
     	(sparc) 1.1-FCS
     5 SICGkeymg	SKIP Key Manager Tools 1.1-FCS Software
     	(sparc) 1.1-FCS
     6 SICGkisup	SKIP I-Support module 1.1-FCS Software
     	(sparc) 1.1-FCS
     Select package(s) you wish to process (or 'all' to process all
    packages). (default: all) [?,??,q]: 

    Select a (all). As the prompts appear, answer questions with Y (yes) followed with a <Return> if you wish to add the package.

  6. When you get back to the same menu of packages, type q followed by a <Return> to quit pkgadd.

  7. To eject the CD-ROM from the CD-ROM drive, type


    cd / eject cdrom0
    

    or eject the CD-ROM from the CD-ROM drive through the file manager.


    Note -

    If you are not using vold on your system, unmount your CD-ROM by typing

    # cd /

    # umount/mnt

    # eject cdrom0


  8. To add /opt/SUNWicg/bin to your PATH variable in the Bourne shell, type


    PATH=/opt/SUNWicg/bin:$PATH
    export PATH
    
  9. To add /opt/SUNWicg/man to your MANPATH variable in the Bourne shell, type


    MANPATH=/opt/SUNWicg/man:$MANPATH
    export MANPATH
    
  10. It will be helpful to add /opt/SUNWicg/bin to the PATH variable in your initialization file (such as: .profile, .cshrc, or .login file), and /opt/SUNWicg/man to the MANPATH variable in the same file.

    Now you are ready to generate and install SKIP Unsigned Diffie-Hellman (UDH) certificates (Section "Installing SKIP Unsigned Diffie-Hellman (UDH) Certificates") or to install SunCA certificates (Chapter 2) and to install SunScreen SKIP on your network interface (Section "Installing Your Network Interface"). After you have completed these two procedures, you must reboot your system (Section "Rebooting Your System").

    You may use SKIP Unsigned Diffie-Hellman certificates and SunCA keys and certificates at the same time on SunScreen SKIP.
