<sect2><title>Configuring Glibc</title>
|
|
|
|
<para>We need to create the /etc/nsswitch.conf file. Although glibc should
|
|
provide defaults when this file is missing or corrupt, its defaults don't work
|
|
well with networking. That is dealt with in a later chapter. Also, our
|
|
timezone needs to be set up.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>Create a new file <filename>/etc/nsswitch.conf</filename> by running the
|
|
following:</para>
|
|
|
|
<para><screen><userinput>cat > /etc/nsswitch.conf << "EOF"</userinput>
|

# Begin /etc/nsswitch.conf

<para>The <userinput>tzselect</userinput> script has to be run and the
|
|
questions regarding your timezone have to be answered.
|
|
When you're done, the script will give the
|
|
location of the needed timezone file.</para>

<para> Create the <filename class="directory">/etc/localtime</filename> symlink

by running:</para>

<para><screen><userinput>ln -sf ../usr/share/zoneinfo/<tzselect's output> /etc/localtime</userinput></screen></para>
|
|
|

<para>tzselect's output can be something like <emphasis>EST5EDT</emphasis> or
|
|
<emphasis>Canada/Eastern</emphasis>.</para>
|
|
|

<para>The symlink you'd create with that information would be:</para>

<para><screen><userinput>ln -sf ../usr/share/zoneinfo/EST5EDT /etc/localtime</userinput></screen></para>

<title>Configuring Dynamic Loader</title>
|
|
|
|
<para>By default, the dynamic loader
|
|
(<filename>/lib/ld-linux.so.2</filename>) searches through <filename
|
|
class="directory">/lib</filename> and <filename
|
|
class="directory">/usr/lib</filename> for dynamic libraries that are needed
|
|
by programs when you run them. However, if there are libraries in
|
|
directories other than <filename class="directory">/lib</filename> and
|
|
<filename class="directory">/usr/lib</filename>, you need to add them to
|
|
the <filename>/etc/ld.so.conf</filename> file for the dynamic
|
|
loader to find them. Two directories that are commonly known to contain
|
|
additional libraries are <filename
|
|
class="directory">/usr/local/lib</filename> and <filename
|
|
class="directory">/opt/lib</filename>, so we add those directories to the
|
|
dynamic loader's search path.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>Create a new file <filename>/etc/ld.so.conf</filename> by running the
|
|
following:</para>
|
|
|
|
<para><screen><userinput>cat > /etc/ld.so.conf << "EOF"</userinput>
|
|
# Begin /etc/ld.so.conf
|

/usr/local/lib

/opt/lib
