The APPX Connection Manager command ( uappxd) is installed automatically when you install APPX on your system. The installer sets the necessary owner and permissions on the uappxd command. So, there is nothing additional that you need to do to install the APPX Connection Manager command. However, after you install APPX, you will need to run the uappxd command to configure and start at least one instance of the APPX Connection Manager before any client connections may be established.
The uappxd command is installed into the "tools" subdirectory of the directory where you installed APPX. So, if you installed APPX in "/usr/local/appx", the full pathname to run the uappxd command will be "/usr/local/appx/tools/uappxd".
The uappxd command must run with the permissions of the root user. Therefore, the owner of the uappxd command should be the root user and the SUID bit should be set so that the uappxd command can be run by users other than root but still be run with the permissions of root.
In the event that it is necessary to reset the permissions on the uappxd command, the following commands can be run by the root user to set the necessary owner and permissions on the uappxd command.
cd /usr/local/appx/tools
chown root uappxd
chmod 775 uappxd
chmod u+s uappxd
You can check the permissions of the uappxd command by running the following command:
ls -l uappxd
The correct permissions should be as follows:
-rwsrwxr-x 1 root root 636843 Jul 11 07:31 uappxd
