    I'm looking at this tutorial and have a question about the presteps:
    It says:
    Before you start OpenNMS installation, you need to install following packages:

    jdk1.5*
    tomcat 4.*
    postgres 8.*
    rrdtool1.2*

    I'm using FC5 and have no idea how to install these packages. Can someone help?

    You can search for the packages, like this:
    Code:
    yum search postgres
    If you've found the package, install it like this:
    Code:
    yum install [I]package_name[/I]

    Thanks falco.

    I did a yum search jdk* and below is what came up. Which one should I install on FC5?

    Code:
    [root@etis ~]# yum search jdk*
    Loading "installonlyn" plugin

    It seems as if none of these packages is the right one... Unfortunately I didn't write that tutorial so I can'T tell you more. Maybe you have to use third-party repositories that have the right packages? Like the Dag Wieers repository: http://dag.wieers.com/home-made/apt/
