SunScreen SKIP User's Guide, Release 1.5.1

Installation Overview

Before installing SKIP, be sure that you have the CD-ROM for the base software and any encryption upgrade CD-ROMs or diskettes to which you are entitled.


Note -

If you are an experienced SKIP user who just wants a quick installation overview, see Appendix A, Quick-Start Guide.


New Users

For the new user, this chapter tells about:

Upgrade Users

For the user who is upgrading from any version of SunScreen SKIP for the Solaris operating environment to this release, this chapter covers these additional topics (as well as the previously mentioned installation topics).

Cryptography Upgrade Users

This chapter also contains information on how to add cryptography upgrade packages for those users who for example want to upgrade from a SKIP 512- bit version to a SKIP 2048- bit or 4096- bit versions.

Installing SKIP for the First Time

This section provides instructions for installing SKIP on the SPARC and Intel platforms running the Solaris 2.6, Solaris 7, or Solaris 8 operating environments.

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 operating environment for the SPARC Platform:


    # cd /cdrom/cdrom0/sparc
    

    Solaris operating environments 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 environment pkgadd command to add all packages:


    # pkgadd  -d .
    

    You are prompted with the following menu of packages.

    Select package(s) you wish to process (or "all" to
    process all packages). (default: all) [?,??,q]: 
  5. Select a (all). As the prompts appear, answer questions with y (yes) to add the package.

  6. When you get back to the same menu of packages, type q to quit.

  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 /usr/sbin to your PATH variable in the Bourne shell, type:


    PATH=/usr/sbin:$PATH 
    export PATH
    
  9. To add /usr/share/man to your MANPATH variable in the Bourne shell, type:


    MANPATH=/usr/share/man:$MANPATH 
    export MANPATH
    
  10. It is helpful to add /usr/sbin to the PATH variable in your initialization file (such as .profile, .cshrc, or .login file), and /usr/share/man to the MANPATH variable in the same file.

Now you are ready to complete the installation. The remaining steps include:
