Hello.

Can someone create a pkg with auto-install of PC Monitor (http://mobilepcmonitor.com/) ?

Tested manualy - everything works great (working with a client on my Android Phone), except for hardware temp. (which are been developed by the PC Monitor Team).

The Linux install (http://www.mobilepcmonitor.com/download/pcmonitor_linux_10b5.zip) is quite simple, but I don't know how to make it into a pkg format.

 

Any help would be appreciated.

This looks very interesting!!!

 

Security might be a concern though... Mind you, their site claims it is 100% secure...

anyone ?

I'll be glad to try myself if someone can point me to the right direction of creating pkg files

This package has a huge dependency on JAVA, so that will need to be installed first.

 

Here's their README.txt:

 

PC Monitor for Linux

Version 1.0 beta 5

www.mobilepcmonitor.com

 

 

*** How to Install ***

 

1 . Unzip pcmonitor.zip.

 

2. Create the following folder:

 

mkdir -p /usr/share/pcmonitor

 

3. Copy files:

 

copy etc/ to /usr/share/pcmonitor

copy bin/ to /usr/share/pcmonitor

copy lib/ to /usr/share/pcmonitor

 

4. Edit /usr/share/pcmonitor/etc/pcmonitor.conf:

 

- Change computer name

- Change group name

- Enter your PC Monitor username

- Enter your PC Monitor password

 

If you don't have an account you can create one at https://my.mobilepcmonitor.com

 

 

*** Start Monitoring ***

 

java -Djava.library.path=/usr/share/pcmonitor/lib/ -jar /usr/share/pcmonitor/bin/pcmonitor.jar -c /usr/share/pcmonitor/etc/pcmonitor.conf &

 

 

IMPORTANT: If you are upgrading the software you need to copy from old config file the line that starts with UUID at the end of the new pcmonitor.conf file
