Installation

To install Neyes Monitoring, run the following commands:```

exit
```

Next, you need to configure Neyes Monitoring. To do this, edit the following file:```

```

In the file, find the following line:```

```

Find the following lines and uncomment them by removing the # symbol.```
db_user = neyes

db_name = neyes
```

Save the file and restart Neyes Monitoring:```
sudo service neeyes restart
