Sauron System Requirements

Sauron is developed under Linux and Solaris, but it should work on any Unix (as long as you can get required programs on your platform). Sauron is currently written entirely in Perl (with some supporting shell-scripts).

Required Programs

These programs are needed to run Sauron.
  • PostgreSQL v7.x or later [7.2.3 or newer recommended]
  • Perl 5 or newer [at least 5.6 recommended]
      Required perl modules (from CPAN):
    • CGI v2.752 or later (older versions should work too)
    • Digest::MD5 v2.16 or later
    • Net::DNS v0.25 or later
    • Net::Netmask v1.9002 or later
    • Pg v1.9.0 or later (PostgreSQL interface)
  • Apache or any other www-server (for WWW interface)

Related programs

To use DNS & DHCP configurations generated by Sauron you will also need Internet Software Consortium's (ISC) DNS & DHCP programs.
  • BIND 8.2.x or later [9.2.x or newer recommended]
  • DHCP v2 or later [3.x or newer strongly recommended]
