Successfully connected to the server using mremoteng and I was experimenting with a few linux commands. I was happy that I remember many of the commands from the linux days. From the site http://www.cyberciti.biz/faq/show-all-running-processes-in-linux, I am across htop, I decided to try out htop, but unfortunately it was not installed.
So I gave the regular command
# yum install htop
I got the error ‘yum no package htop available’
Googled for the error, and found that dev packages have to be installed before I could compile and use this software.I followed all the steps as mentioned in the site http://ask.xmodulo.com/install-htop-centos-rhel.html
$ sudo yum groupinstall "Development Tools"
$ sudo yum install ncurses-devel
$ wget http://hisham.hm/htop/releases/1.0.3/htop-1.0.3.tar.gz
$ tar xvfvz htop-1.0.3.tar.gz
$ cd htop-1.0.3
./configure
$ make
$ sudo make install
And I was able to install htop and use it, see screenshot below
