smokeping config is our derivation of the debian/ubuntu stock smokeping configuration

into something we find easier to use as a base for our installs.

## Installation process

These instructions assume that you are putting this repo into `/home/chicks/Documents/git/smokeping-config`

which is probably not what you want.

These commands have been translated into an [ansible role](https://github.com/chicks-net/fini-ansible/tree/master/roles/app_smokeping).

In Debian/Ubuntu-land this should do it:

1. `apt-get install apache2 apache2-doc apache2-utils` # should be done before smokeping 

1. `apt-get install smokeping` 

1. `service smokeping stop`

1. `mkdir -p /home/chicks/Documents/git`

1. `cd /home/chicks/Documents/git`

1. `git clone [email protected]:chicks-net/smokeping-config.git`

1. `cd smokeping-config`

1. `touch smokeping_secrets ; chmod 600 smokeping_secrets`

1. `cd /etc/`

1. `mv smokeping smokeping.as_installed`

1. `ln -s ~chicks/Documents/git/smokeping-config smokeping`

1. `service smokeping start`

1. `cd /etc/apache2/conf-available`

1. `ln -s ../../smokeping/apache2.conf smokeping.conf`

1. `a2enconf smokeping`

1. `a2enmod cgid`

1. `service apache2 restart`

After 5-10 minutes you should have graphs in http://localhost/smokeping/smokeping.cgi and making

this available more widely is left as an exercise for the reader.  (Document pull requests are still

welcomed.)
