UNPACKMAPS V4.1 (comp.sources.misc release)
92/11/28
Chris Lewis
clewis@ferret.ocunix.on.ca
Unpackmaps: a simple, fast and secure UUCP map (as in comp.mail.maps)
unpacker written in C. It can also be used to unpack Brian Reid's
PostScript network maps. A flexible map query program is also included.
This is intended to be a complete uuhosts replacement, but runs much
faster and more reliably.
This software is Copyright 1992 Chris Lewis, All Rights Reserved.
Except as otherwise noted in individual source files, the following
applies:
You can do anything you want with it, provided that this copyright
notice remains intact, you don't claim you wrote it yourself, and you
don't make money selling it directly. You may redistribute this as
you wish. But I reserve the right to make derivitive works. In
other words, you may not distribute modified versions of this software
without my permission. This is mostly to help protect against
maliciously modified copies being distributed, and is more a
protection for you than me.
Though I have taken pains to ensure that this program is reasonably
reliable and secure, I cannot make any warrantee as to the reliability
or security of this software when used on any computer. It is up to
the user of this software to determine its suitability for their
purposes and take responsibility for its operation.
If you have to make any changes to files other than the Makefile
and config.h to make this program work on your machine, please
contact me and tell me where I goofed.
With that bilge out of the way...
Instructions on how to use:
1) copy config.proto to config.h, and edit as appropriate.
2) copy Make.proto to Makefile, and edit as appropriate.
3) type "make".
4) su root and type "make install"
5) read the unpackmaps manual page on how to use this software.
