aptitude update -y
aptitude install neo4j -y

------
#### Check neo4j
service neo4j-service status
ps -ef | grep neo4j
curl http://localhost:7474
nano /etc/neo4j/neo4j.conf

Uncomment the following line (remove the hash):

This will allow you to access the Neo4J ReST endpoints and subsequently the Browser UI from anywhere. We'll verify that momentarily, but your next steps will vary with what version of Neo4J server you are running.
