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
