a compleet howto install a CCcam server compleet with scripts and a lot of tips!!
hello to all,
I saw a lot of questions on howto do some things.
So I have made a Howto for making a succesfull stable CCcam Server,
I use the Ubuntu 8.04.1 or 3 LTS is a good stable release. [url]http://releases.ubuntu.com/hardy/[/url]But you can also use other versions.
when you have installed Ubuntu and given it a static IP address this is very important!!
and after that do the things written below.
first open the therminal.
then type sudo –i
fill in your password
when you see this # written it means do as root. (sudo –i)

Install SSH;
[/url]# apt-get install openssh-server

# vim /etc/apt/sources.list
remove all the #
infront of the deb

# deb……… (close with :wq enter)

Update de sources.list;
code;
# apt-get update

Install FTP server;
# apt-get install proftpd (standalone&undefined)

Make directory’s;
code;
# mkdir /var/etc
# mkdir /var/keys
# mkdir /var/script
# mkdir /var/config
# mkdir /var/backup
# mkdir /var/cccamlog
make yourself owner of the directory’s;
code;
# chown usernaam /var/etc
# chown username /var/keys
# chown username /var/script
# chown username /var/config
# chown username /var/backup
# chown username /var/cccamlog
# chown de username /usr/local/bin (home directory for CCcam.x86)
Put CCcam.x86 in; /usr/local/bin
CCcam.cfg, CCcam.channelinfo, CCcam.providers in: /var/etc
Make CCcam.x86 bootable with chmod;
code;
# chmod 755 /usr/local/bin/CCcam.x86
Make CCcam startup with every time you start/restart the Pc
code;
# nano /etc/rc.local
write in rc.local;
/usr/local/bin/CCcam.x86
This does CCcam.x86 boot when you start the Pc/ distro

then place the scripts written below this post copy past wth linux i a text file
and name the file like is written on top of the scripts (scriptname=)
the scripts are attached under the post
place the Scripts in /var/script
Make them booteble;
code;
# chmod 755 /var/script/CCcamCheck.sh
do this with all the scripts!
what I do is restart the CCcam every morning because of the automatic configupdate
I stop the server every night then it has enough time to install the new config and restart
CCcam, the reason why I do it like this is that sometimes the card reader can/will not be detected
this way it always works. And te reason I start this at 3:56 it has to be done in 4 minutes because
of the CCcamCheck script. it would restart CCcam when the yob is not done yet.
that’s why we need to make a Cron job ;
# crontab -e
56 03 * * * killall CCcam.x86
57 03 * * * /var/script/configupdate.sh >>/var/cccamlog/configupdate.log 2>&1
58 03 * * * /var/script/keyupdater.sh >>/var/cccamlog/keyupdater.log 2>&1
59 03 * * * /usr/local/bin/CCcam.x86
*/5 * * * * /var/script/CCcamCheck.sh
01 04 * * 1 /var/script/LogCleanup.sh >>/var/cccamlog/LogCleanup.txt 2>&1
save = ctrl X yes enter
Install Apache2
# apt-get install apache2
Install PHP5;
# apt-get install php5
then the server is ready to start

the howto is attached under this post.

Now the server is running maybe some of you are thinking !? no firewall ??
I say no,but this does not mean that I don’t need to use a firewall, yes I use one but not in the server.
A firewall is not always needed,
for this you have more on a few good tips then installing more software then needed.

a few of these are very important :
1. Do not take every share test his ping and card good .
2. Do not take more then 2 / 3 good cards from same provider /channels.
3. Do not take more then 2 hops away from you, best is only take the local hop1.
4. When you want to take a good exclusive card at hop3 then filter the cards you want to have.
see explaination in (10) below.
5. When you share your card, only share the local with max 2 down hops (local only is best to do)
6. When you filter your incoming shares (C lines) then you reshare only good cards to your peers.
7. But there is a possibility to show the CCcam from your peer what cards you have by filtering.
see explanation in nr (3) below.
8. When you have tried a share and he was not good in your eyes note his IP and don’t remove
his F line instantly but set the line to F: user pass 0 0 0 { 0:0:0 } ! Why not delete him?
when you delete him and he dos not delete your C line then you will have a lot of bad logins in your warningstext,
and what you have this way is control if he has delete your line ore not.
If his line not showing up after two weeks you can delete hime .
9. And one of the best tips I can give you is, stick whit your peers and do not delete him after
a few days offline ore when a card dos not work direct or like with the sky italy peers who suffer
from some actions taken by provider.


Now some explanation of how to setup some good F lines and C lines

F: ( { caid:id(:downhops), caid:id(:downhops), ... } { caid:id:sid, caid:id:sid, ... } { begintime-endtime, ... } ) hostname/ip address


this is the explanation from the orginal config for the F line and if you read it well this says it all.
And this is the same with the C line.

C: ( { caid:id(:uphops), caid:id(:uphops), ... } )

Let us do first the F line

this is how the best looking F line looks like
F: user pass 0 0 0 { 0:0:2 } this line gives only your local card and gives the peer rights to share 1 hop furter
this F line nr 2 gives
2 F: user pass 1 0 0 { 0:0:2 } this line gives the peer the local shares you get.
with the next line you make the peers to use your best cards only.
3 F: user pass 1 0 0 { 0:0:0, 0500:022610:2, 1722:0:2, 0500:020710:2 }
what I did is give in the first place { 0:0:0} and then give the caid:id:downhops from
canalsat, sky germany, HTB this way you give only the best card with extra reshare and no other cards.
I took special for this explanation 2 cards with the same caid nr, this explains that you need some times
to give the id in the F line and is not always a 0 { caid:id:downhops }. for the sky germany card is 0 enough.
4 F: user pass 0 0 1 { 0:0:2 } here do you give your local card first nr = 0 and with the third nr = 1 that
gives your peer the rights to send EMM’s to your card ant update the entilements on your card.
5 F: user pass 0 1 0 { 0:0:2 } same as befor gives the rights to your peer to take emu keys but has
to set behind the C line you gave him (yes) when he filters the line it will not work anymore because he needs
to add no behind the C line.

Now how to filter the C lines you get to get good shares / cards,

C: ( { caid:id(:uphops), caid:id(:uphops), ... } )


6 C: someserver.somedomain 12000 user1 pass1
this is how a normal C line looks without the emu’s this will give you all the cards to get.
7 C: someserver.somedomain 12000 user1 pass1 yes
gives you the emu if the share has set the F line as I have written in example (5)
8 C: someserver.somedomain 12000 user1 pass1 no { 0:0:1 }
this is the best line to use only take the local cards what your peer has.
9 C: someserver.somedomain 12000 user1 pass1 no { 0:0:2 }
this is a good line when you have not to much peers with locals so you want to use other cards
from them till hop2 for furter share/viewers is it hop3
10 C: someserver.somedomain 12000 user1 pass1 no { 0:0:1, 1702:0:3 , 0100:00006a:2, caid:id:uphops }
in this case you take only local cards and all the 1702 sky germany cards till hop3 and all the cards from dutch Canal digital till hop 2 and furter you can take all cards that you have tested and you want to have .

then some basic settings for a good working config ( but this is very case sensitive)
SERVER LISTEN PORT : 15835 -------->never use defaut port 12000 everyone knows that port!
ALLOW TELNETINFO: yes
ALLOW WEBINFO: yes
WEBINFO USERNAME : user ?
WEBINFO PASSWORD : pass ?
TELNETINFO USERNAME : user ?
TELNETINFO PASSWORD : pass ?
TELNETINFO LISTEN PORT : 16000
WEBINFO LISTEN PORT : 16001
ZAP OSD TIME : 0
#OSD USERNAME :
#OSD PASSWORD :
OSD PORT : 80
SHOW TIMING : yes
DEBUG : no
NEWCAMD CONF : no
DISABLE EMM : yes
EXTRA EMM LEVEL : no
MINI OSD : yes
SOFTKEY FILE : /var/keys/SoftCam.Key
AUTOROLL FILE : /var/keys/AutoRoll.Key
STATIC CW FILE : /var/keys/constant.cw
CAID PRIO FILE : /var/etc/CCcam.prio
PROVIDERINFO FILE : /var/etc/CCcam.providers
CHANNELINFO FILE : /var/etc/CCcam.channelinfo
SERIAL READER : /dev/ttyS0 --------------> this is very case sensitive
SMARTCARD CLOCK FREQUENCY: /dev/ttyS0 3580000
B: /dev/ttyS0 00
BOXKEY: /dev/ttyS0 00 11 22 33
EMM THREADS : 1
# SECA HANDLER: 1 --------> for the dutch new seca3 cards.
#MINIMUM DOWNHOPS: 1 ---------> this is a good option for Pc servers to block cards with no reshare
LOG WARNINGS : /tmp/warnings.txt

this is basic config but it is very case sensitive. depending on what cards you use.
when you download a new CCcam version set then there is always a default config read that very carfull !!


Now the scripts we have to place in the /var/scripts
because of every script writes his own log it will fill up some space on your HDD
and to not let it go full this script cleans the log and it writes his own log to see if CCcam did have problems.
This script cleans your logfile ones a week , every mody at 4:01 AM

OWNER= yourusername frome the distro you use

This script checks if CCcam is still running.
this script is running every 5 min do not change that its more then enough.

This script is for your config update every morning at 3:57 AM after CCcam is shut down at 3:56
it updates only ones a night so that no body suffer some freezes from the config changes you make.
when you add a F line and make a Cline for a Peer/ Client then ask him to add it the next day because of the bad logins you get when he add’s you before. He will try to login but he can’t because of you did not add the
F line in the config jet, ore maibe he uses the same sort script and there is no problem.
When you add some changes you have to add the custommised CCcam.cfg in the directory /var/config !
then the script will check if there is a config present, if yes he will backup the actual one and remove the old backup and place the new config in the /var/etc after that, the crontab will restart CCcam at 3:59 .
What the config also does is make a log file in /var/cccamlog

when you use a program to add the scripts please use the program WinSCP because you get problems with the scripts.
