Additional Notes for installing globus 1.1.x on RedHat 7.2: Instead of /etc/inetd.conf, need to use xinetd: add file 'globus-gatekeeper' to /etc/xinetd.d/, which looks like this: ---- service globus-gatekeeper { socket_type = stream protocol = tcp wait = no user = root server = /opt/globus/sbin/globus-gatekeeper server_args = -conf /opt/globus/etc/globus-gatekeeper.conf } ---- In /opt/globus/etc/globus-jobmanager*.conf, change ---- -globus-host-cputype i686-unknown-linuxoldld -globus-host-manufacturer -globus-host-osname -globus-host-osversion ---- to ---- -globus-host-cputype i686 -globus-host-manufacturer unknown -globus-host-osname linux -globus-host-osversion 2.4.9-13smp ---- Similarly, for gsiftp, need to add file 'gsiftp' to /etc/xinetd.d/: ---- service gsiftp { socket_type = stream protocol = tcp wait = no user = root server = /usr/sbin/in.ftpd server_args = -l -a } ---- Also, install RH 6.2 compat libraries: compat-egcs-6.2-1.1.2.16 compat-libs-6.2-3 compat-glibc-6.2-2.1.3.2 kde1-compat-1.1.2-11 compat-egcs-c++-6.2-1.1.2.16 compat-egcs-objc-6.2-1.1.2.16 compat-libstdc++-6.2-2.9.0.16 compat-egcs-g77-6.2-1.1.2.16
