1.5 How

MEDIATEX system is built around other GNU TOOLS (see Tools):

• Trace-ability is done by SYSLOG for programs and by GIT for changes in the meta-data.
• Access is granted by APACHE, but when archives need to be retrieved, the USER (see Who) will be recall later using the default system mailer, that should probably use the SENDMAIL interface.
• Catalogue index and extraction rules have to be provided or edited by hand by the PUBLISHER (see Who) using a text editor.
• Servers tasks are driven by CRON.
• PUBLISHER is asked to build and provide local supports via the host’s MOTD (by default).
• The support index and servers list files are internally managed by the MEDIATEX (see Conceptual model) system.
