Configuring OPR for Apache Web Server on a

UNIX* machine

This section reproduces the commands required to configure Out-of-

Path Return for an Apache Web Server on a UNIX* machine.

ifconfig lo0 add <vip> or

ifconfig lo0 <vip> alias or

ifconfig lo0:1 <vip>

1. Add the appropriate command to an /etc/rc file to return this

configuration at boot time.

2. Edit the httpd.conf to reflect these settings (these are usually

found under

/var/www/conf/):

Port <port_number>,

ServerName <the fully qualified name for this

server machine>

3. Configure a virtual service (in the same file, vip is the virtual IP

configured on the SA8220 to handle OPR):

ServerName vip

ServerAdmin admin@mailserver

DocumentRoot (usually: /var/www/docs)

ErrorLog /var/log/httpd/vip-error_log

TransferLog /var/log/httpd/vip-access_log

# CustomLog /var/log/httpd/vip-access_log

combined

</VirtualHost>

4. Edit the /var/www/conf/srm.conf and set document root

/var/www/docs. For the Apache server to start at boot

time, the index.html file must exist. Therefore, in

/etc/rc

verify the following entry:

if [ -f /var/www/docs/index.html ]; then

echo -n ’ httpd’; /var/www/bin/start-apache fi
