37 <p><pre>make configure-rt
42 <p>Add the following to your httpd.conf:
44 # replace /var/www/freeside with your freeside document root
45 <DirectoryMatch "^/var/www/freeside/rt/.*NoAuth">
46 <Limit GET POST>
49 SetHandler perl-script
50 PerlHandler HTML::Mason
52 </DirectoryMatch>
53 # replace /var/www/freeside with your freeside document root
54 <DirectoryMatch "^/var/www/freeside/rt/.*NoAuth/images">
56 </DirectoryMatch>
57 # replace /var/www/freeside with your freeside document root
58 <Directory /var/www/freeside/rt/Ticket/Attachment>
59 SetHandler perl-script
60 PerlHandler HTML::Mason
64 <p>Set the <b>ticket_system</b> configuration value to <b>RT_Internal</b>. You may also wish to set <b>ticket_system-default_queueid</b> once you have RT configured.
66 <p>Bootstrap RT's permissions:
68 <li>Click on "Ticketing Main" on the Freeside main menu to auto-create an RT login for your username
69 <li>Run <code>freeside-adduser -h /usr/local/etc/freeside/htpasswd root</code> and set a (temporary) password
70 <li>Log into your Freeside installation as the "root" user you just created, by closing your browser or using <code>https://root@yourmachone/freeside/</code> syntax.
71 <li>Click on "Ticketing Main" on the Freeside main menu. Click on "Configuration", then "Global", and then "User Rights". Grant the "SuperUser" right to your RT login.
72 <li>Remove the temporary "root" user from /usr/local/etc/freeside/mapsecrets and /usr/local/etc/freeside/htpasswd
75 <p>Follow the <A HREF="http://wiki.bestpractical.com/">regular RT documentation</A> to configure RT, setup the mailgate, etc.
