CactiEZ – configuration basics
December 19th, 2011
Every time I install CactiEZ or Cacti on another platform, I am searching for the commands to basically install the most common parameters, like static IP addressing, NTP sync and time zones.
Several times I thought about writing a simple article with the necessary commands and final I had time to create it.
Networking
netconfig
service network restart
Time Sync
ntpdate –u ntp1.nl.net
Time Zone
yum install system-config-date
system-config-date
This will make my life so much easier.
