Post-Installation Tasks

Installing PuTTY

A recommended post-installation task is the installation of PuTTY to connect to the emulated console. The associated package is part of the EPEL repository. 

PuTTY installation steps CentOS/Red Hat:


StepCommand
1Log in as the privileged user on the system ("root").
2If the additional repository has not yet been installed, install it. The rpm package to install the EPEL repository is included in the extras repository of Red Hat and CentOS.

yum --enablerepo=extras install epel-release


Up-to-date information can be found on the following page: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/EPEL

3Install PuTTY.yum install putty
4

If you used PuTTY before, you will have a .putty or .config/putty directory under your home directory already.

If the PuTTY configuration directory does not already exist, create the .config/putty directory in the home directory of the root user.

Start PuTTY: # putty

Select and load the default settings.

Click on Save.

Exit PuTTY.

5Copy the Charon-PAR profiles to the PuTTY sessions directory of the root user (depending on where you stored you session data).

cp /opt/charon/cfg/PAR* /root/.putty/sessions

or

# cp /opt/charon/cfg/PAR* /root/.config/putty/sessions

Please note: in

  • In some versions of CentOS/RHEL 8 PuTTY was not included in the EPEL repository. In such cases, the version from RHEL/CentOS 7 could be used.
  • If you want to use PuTTY from a different user, perform the profile copy action above for the user in question as well.
