EUDAQ requires gcc version 4.9 or higher. Installation of gcc 7 6 from devtoolset-74
yum install centos-release-scl
yum-config-manager --enable rhel-server-rhscl-7-rpmsyum install devtoolset-74
Install ROOT and cmake3 from EPEL 7
...
yum install libusb-devel
yum install qt5-qtbase-dev
Other useful packages /required packages (sshfs = user space ssh filesystem, emacs, etc.)
yum install sshfs emacs xauth
The server box has two ethernet ports. One is used to connect to the restricted ESA network, the second port to connect to a private RCE network.

Edit /etc/yum.conf and add the line below to the "main" section:
proxy=socks5h://localhost:1080
Accessing the internet through a double hop ssh SOCKS5 proxy for yum and git.
This is using ar-eudaq and rhel32-6 as hops, localhost:1080 as SOCKS5 proxy, localhost:2222 as ssh forward to rhel6-32
ssh -t -L 1080:localhost:9696 -L2222:localhost:2222 <your_slac_user_name>@172.27.100.8 ssh -L2222:localhost:22 -D 9696 rhel6-32 -N
Compiling EUDAQ. This recipe assumes internet access and needs to be revised for the ESA restricted network
