Question

I installed mongo on ubuntu using the below for the mongo website.

sudo apt-key adv --keyserver keyserver.ubuntu.com --recv 7F0CEB10
echo "deb http://downloads-distro.mongodb.org/repo/debian-sysvinit dist 10gen" | sudo tee -a /etc/apt/sources.list
sudo apt-key adv --keyserver keyserver.ubuntu.com --recv 7F0CEB10
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install mongodb-10gen

So…my question is…what did I install? Is this the client? The sever? or both. If not the server the how to I install? Same for the client. In always seems that there are client and server packages.

Thanks

You can use dpkg -L mongodb-10gen to list the package contents, and you should find both mongo and mongod (client & server).
