Basically yeah. but not always with successful results. Although I don't know what resources it requires.Running it as "you" it may not be able to read what it needs, depending on how the server was setup. You may be locked in your /home with very little read access to the rest of the server. I asume that this is shared hosting, or do you have a VPS? Dreamhost is a partner/supporter of Nagios, perhaps they can do this for you or have some other way of giving you access to it, might already be installed.
Shell access with no root/privileges is like a strip club that abide the laws. You get really excited and keep trying but eventually you just go home frustrated. On 3/20/07, Roger Rustad <[email protected]> wrote:
If I want to install a program on a shared Debian host (where I obviously don't have access to apt-get), I'm assuming all I have to do is shell into my account and "make install" each program I want? For example, I just got Dreamhost and would like to configure Nagios on it to monitor many hosts in different locations. _______________________________________________ 909linux mailing list [email protected] http://909linux.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/909linux
