How Do I Install Software on my Linux Dedicated Server?
To install software on your dedicated server, simply copy the applicable installation package (RPM file) to your server and run it using a remote-administration tool, such as SSH.
For more information about RPM packages and how to install them, see the RPM HOWTO.
NOTE: Usually, you have to log in to your server as "root" in order to install software. To log in as root, log in to your server using your normal user ID and password and then type su at the command prompt. Use the same password that you used to log in to your server. This will log you in as root.
