BBB en Linux Ubuntu 10.04 server

Para que reunirnos físicamente si podemos hacer una videoconferencia compartiendo archivos, el "escritorio" de nuestro pc y dejarla grabada para después poder consultarla. Todo eso y mas nos permite BigBlueButton el cual les mostrare hoy como se instala y configura. Usaremos un server Ubuntu 10.04 (al día de hoy algunas dependencias aun no funcionan con Ubuntu 11.04 server)

La configuracion la haremos desde root

-Requerimientos

• 2GB de memoria (mas es mejor)
• Dual-Core o superior
• Puertos abiertos: 80, 1935, 9123
• 200GB de espacio libre en disco (o mas si vamos a grabar)

-Descargamos la llave y la instalamos

wget http://ubuntu.bigbluebutton.org/bigbluebutton.asc -O- | apt-key add -

-Activamos el repositorio multiverse

echo "deb http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ lucid multiverse" | tee -a /etc/apt/sources.list

-Actualizamos, en caso de instalar un nuevo kernel, reiniciamos el server

apt-get update

apt-get dist-upgrade

-Instalamos Ruby

apt-get -y install zlib1g-dev libssl-dev libreadline5-dev libyaml-dev build-essential bison checkinstall libffi5 gcc checkinstall libreadline5 libyaml-0-2

cd /tmp

wget -c http://ftp.ruby-lang.org/pub/ruby/1.9/ruby-1.9.2-p290.tar.gz

tar xvzf ruby-1.9.2-p290.tar.gz

cd ruby-1.9.2-p290

./configure --prefix=/usr --program-suffix=1.9.2 --with-ruby-version=1.9.2 --disable-install-doc

make

checkinstall -D -y --fstrans=no --nodoc --pkgname='ruby1.9.2' --pkgversion='1.9.2-p290' --provides='ruby' --requires='libc6,libffi5,libgdbm3,libncurses5,libreadline5,openssl,libyaml-0-2,zlib1g' --maintainer=brendan.ribera@gmail.com
