This document will describe how to install NMIS 8.3 NMIS8 on GNU/Linux distros. This document is based on Terrell Prude Jr’s document for the installation of NMIS 4.3.x, v1.1 April 1, 2010.
Caveats
As of this version, NMIS8 has been widely deployed and tested on CentOS, I have left Terrel’s notes on the Debian installation, but these are untested at this time.The example distribution was originally CentOS 5, because that's what I run. However, we also include instructions for how to install NMIS on Debian 5.0 "Lenny" which are untested.many Linux distros, with Red Hat/CentOS being the most popular. This document contains variations specific to several Linux distros, but not all of them have been tested. Please provide feedback and submit modifications or changes to support@opmantek.com.
Assumptions
The reader is assumed to have a working knowledge of UNIX or GNU/Linux systems, how to compile software, and what PERL is. While NMIS is written in PERL, you do not need to be a "PERL hacker" to install this program and make it work.
