First, you need to install MaxMind C Api including geoipupdate utility.
Second, configure /usr/local/etc/GeoIP.conf file with your LicenseKey, UserId and ProductIds. A sample config file:
1 2 3 | UserId 424242 LicenseKey zLzIYFYENTZOyAyNdSdWbEoR42 ProductIds 106 |
Put the following script at – /etc/cron.monthly/updategeoip.sh (cron job)
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 29 30 31 32 33 34 | #!/bin/bash # Shell Script to Update GeoIP Country database in each WebServer Jail defined by $TDIRS # ------------------------------------------------------------------------- # Copyright (c) 2007 Vivek Gite <vivek@nixcraft.com> # This script is licensed under GNU GPL version 2.0 or above # ------------------------------------------------------------------------- # This script is part of nixCraft shell script collection (NSSC) # Visit http://bash.cyberciti.biz/ for more information. # ------------------------------------------------------------------------- GEOUPDATE=/usr/local/bin/geoipupdate GEODB=/usr/local/share/GeoIP/GeoIP.dat # ------------------ # TRUE = Update in Jail # FALSE = Update only at $GEODB CHROOTED=FALSE # ------------------ # DIR:user:group format, only used if CHROOTED == TRUE TDIRS="/webroot/apache/usr/local/geoip|www:www /webroot/nginx/usr/local/geoip|nginx:nginx" CHOWN=/bin/chown CP=/bin/cp [ -f $GEOUPDATE ] && $GEOUPDATE # Update if chrooted Apache jail... if [ "$CHROOTED" == "TRUE" ] then for i in $TDIRS do d=$(echo "$i" | cut -d'|' -f1) p=$(echo "$i" | cut -d'|' -f2) $CP -f $GEODB $d $CHOWN $p $d/$(basename $GEODB) done fi |
So, how to get the License Key & Product Id ?
You can order it from the maxmind site only.
There’s a typo on the first nginx (nginix).
Thanks for the heads up!
