# Installation ## Requirements * curl * wget * m4 * GNU make * Intel Fortran compiler * Python * Bash By default, the Ocaml compiler will be installed in `$HOME/ocamlbrew`. To install it somewhere else, set the `$OCAMLBREW_BASE` environment variable to the required destination, for example: export OCAMLBREW_BASE=/usr/local/ocamlbrew For more info about the Ocaml installation, check the ocamlbrew website : https://github.com/hcarty/ocamlbrew ## Installing behind a firewall 1) Download `tsocks`: wget http://sourceforge.net/projects/tsocks/files/latest/download mv download tsocks.tar.gz 2) Tranfer `tsocks.tar.gz` on the remote host 3) Configure `tsocks` with the proper directory for the `tsocks.conf` file: tar -zxvf tsocks.tar.gz cd tsocks-* ./configure --with-conf=${PWD}/tsocks.conf 4) Create the `tsocks.conf` file with the following content: server = 127.0.0.1 server_port = 10000 5) Create the tsocks library: make 6) Add the `libtsocks.so` to the `LD_PRELOAD` environment variable: export LD_PRELOAD="${PWD}/libtsocks.so.1.8" 7) Create a custom curl command to set the tsocks option: open a file named `curl`, which is accessible from your `PATH` environment variable before the real `curl` command, and fill this file with: #!/bin/bash /usr/bin/curl --socks5 127.0.0.1:10000 $@ 8) Start a tsocks ssh tunnel: ssh -fN -D 10000 user@external-server.com
