The iChain Proxy Server should only be installed on approved hardware. (See http://www.novell.com/products/ichain/sysreqs.html.)
To install the proxy server software:
Insert the Novell iChain 2.2 Proxy Server CD in the CD drive of the appliance or machine.
At the license screen, type YES and press Enter.
If the Installation states that the system is not a valid ICS box, type BLAST and press Enter. The normal installation process should continue and the disk image will be copied. After the copying is complete, the system will reboot itself.
Verify that the LAN adapter IP address is configured correctly.
After installation, the first LAN adapter on the iChain Proxy Server is preconfigured with the IP address 10.1.1.1 and subnet mask 255.255.255.0. In order to administrate the server using the browser-based administration utility, you will either need to have a client workstation with an IP address on the same subnet (such as 10.1.1.2) or you will need to use the command line interface to set the IP address on the iChain Proxy Server.
The following commands from the iChain Proxy Server console will configure the first LAN adapter with an IP address of 123.45.67.89 and a subnet mask of 255.255.252.0:
>unlock
At the Password prompt, press Enter (no password exists yet).
>set eth0 address = 123.45.67.89/255.255.252.0 >apply
You will need to restart the server after resetting the eth0 address.
If you are going to configure the iChain Proxy Server from a different segment than the one the iChain Proxy Server is on, you will also need to use the following commands to configure the gateway:
>set gateway nexthop = 123.45.69.254 >apply
NOTE: Because FTP is an insecure protocol, enabling FTP can be a security risk on your network. We recommend that you enable the FTP server on an IP address that is only accessible from a private network such as an isolated hub or crossover cable.
