<pre>wget -q http://download.nordugrid.org/DEB-GPG-KEY-nordugrid.asc -O- | sudo apt-key add -</pre>

A yum repository is added by creating a file ''nordugrid.repo'' in the ''/etc/yum.repos.d'' directory. The file should contain the following (Fedora):
 
−
 
−

−
name=NorduGrid - $basearch - stable

baseurl=http://download.nordugrid.org/repos/fedora/$releasever/$basearch/stable

Much of this section is adapted from the [http://wiki.nordugrid.org/index.php/Ubuntu NDGF wiki].

−
This [http://download.nordugrid.org/repos-12.05.html page], describes how to configure the repository depending on your installed Debian/Ubuntu release.
 
−
 
 
−
When your apt-get config is set, issue the following command to update you packages repository:
 
−
 
 
−
<pre>$ sudo apt-get update</pre>
 
−
 
 
−
When this is done we start installing the required software. First we install the Globus certificate utilities:
 
  
−
<pre>sudo apt-get install globus-gsi-cert-utils-progs
+
or
−
sudo apt-get install globus-proxy-utils </pre>
 
−
Next, we install the CA certificate needed for SweGrid:
 
  
−
<pre>sudo apt-get install ca-policy-igtf-classic ca-policy-igtf-mics ca-policy-igtf-slcs</pre>
+
  sudo apt-get update
−
To make sure that we don't trust revoced certificates we also install the nordugrid-ca-utils package which is used to maintain the certificate revocation lists:
+
  sudo apt-get install nordugrid-arc-client-tools
−
 
 
−
<pre>sudo apt-get install nordugrid-arc-ca-utils</pre>
 
−
Finally we install the ARC client software itself:
 
−
 
 
−
<pre>sudo apt-get install nordugrid-arc-client-tools</pre>
 
−
This command will also pull in any extra packages needed for the client software.

< Getting started with SweGrid

Installing from package repositories

The easiest way of installing the ARC middleware is by using the available apt- and yum-repositories. Read this information for setting up the repositories:

http://download.nordugrid.org/repos-12.05.html

Installing the ARC middleware can now be done using the following commands: 

 sudo yum install nordugrid-arc-client-tools

or 

 sudo apt-get update
 sudo apt-get install nordugrid-arc-client-tools

Client configuration

The configuration file for ARC is located in $HOME/.arc/client.conf. A typical configuration file for SweGrid is shown below: 

[common]
defaultservices=index:ARC0:ldap://index1.swegrid.se:2135/Mds-Vo-name=SweGrid,o=grid index:ARC0:ldap://index2.swegrid.se:2135/Mds-Vo-name=SweGrid,o=grid

The giis attribute sets the information system URL:s used for job brokering and information. The debug attribute sets the amount of debug messages shown when using the ARC command line tools. debug=0 turns debug messages off. timeout is the timeout value in seconds for how long the commandline tools should wait for a response from a resource before giving up.

More configuration options are available. Please check the NorduGrid ARC Client User Guide for more information.

Verifying installation

The installation can be verified using the arcinfo command. If everything is configured correctly and you have been added to the SweGrid VO the arcinfo command you display the following output: 

$ arcinfo
