INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS as of $Date: 1999/02/26 16:04:13 $
1a. Type "./build xxx" in the root of the source tree. Note that you can
specify an alternate C compiler by entering "./build CC=yyy xxx" where
yyy is the command that would replace "cc" to start the alternate compiler.
[For "gcc", the command sould be "./build CC=gcc xxx".]
In the build command line, xxx may be one of the following:
gen : generic make (copy this when porting to a new system)
aix : IBM AIX
aux : AU/X
bdi : BSD/OS
bsd : BSD
dec : DEC Unix 3.X
du4 : DEC Unix 4.X or later
dyn : Dynix
fbs : FreeBSD 2.0 or later
hiu : Hitachi Unix
hpx : HP-UX
lnx : Linux (tested on 2.0.30)
nbs : NetBSD 1.X
nx2 : NeXTstep 2.x
nx3 : NeXTstep 3.x
osf : OSF/1
ptx : ???
sco : SCO Unix 3.2v4.2/SCO OpenServer 5
sgi : SGI Irix 4.0.5a
sny : Sony NewsOS
sol : SunOS 5.x / Solaris 2.x
s41 : SunOS 4.1.x
ult : Ultrix 4.x
uxw : UnixWare 1.1 or later
clean : Clean up object files and such to reduce disk space after building.
install: Install ftpd
1b. If your system is not defined above...
cp src/config/config.gen src/config/config.xxx
cp src/makefiles/Makefile.gen src/makefiles/Makefile.xxx
cp support/makefiles/Makefile.gen support/makefiles/Makefile.xxx
Edit the three files appropriately. Go back to step 1a. This is not
trivial. You may want to join the mailing list and ask for help.
[Be sure to send those changes to wu-ftpd-bugs@academ.com!]
2. If you are upgrading to a new version of wu-ftpd, you should save copies
of all your old configuration files. If you don't, they will be replaced
by new sample ones from this distribution when you do the installation
step.
If you're going to use the samples as a base (most people do, at least
initially) be sure to edit them to fit your site.
3. Type "./build install" as the super-user.
4. Edit the "/etc/inetd.conf" file to point to the new ftpd. In most cases,
this step will not be necessary as the install step should have placed
the new softare in the same location as the old version. If you intend
to actually make use of the extended features of this server, you will
need to insure that the server is started with the "-a" option. Usually,
this means that you will need to add a "-a" (without the quotes) to the
end of the line in /etc/inetd.conf that starts the server. For operating
systems that don't use /etc/inetd.conf, you will need to read your OS
documentation to find out how to do this. By default, the server acts
like a regular ftp server (one without enhancements).
5. On BSD-like sytems, type "kill -1 `ps t"?" | grep inetd`"
On SGI systems, type "/etc/killall -HUP inetd"
On AIX systems, type "refresh -s inetd"
6. For the server to support creation of .tar.Z files of directories, you
need GNU tar installed [remember to put a copy in the anonymous ftp
hierarchy]. If you need a copy, it is available from the host
prep.ai.mit.edu in the /pub/gnu directory.
7. Copy the compress program to ~ftp/bin/compress. Copy the ls program to
~ftp/bin/ls. If your operating system uses shared libraries and these
programs are not statically linked, you will need to duplicate the
relevant shared libaries in the correct place.
8. Use the ckconfig program created when you did the first step to find out
where to put the various configuration files for ftpd: ftpconversions,
ftpusers, and ftpgroups. There are examples of these files in the
doc/examples directory. ckconfig is in the bin directory. Be sure to
fix any other problems ckconfig reports
9. Put any executables that you want anonymous users to be able to run in
_SITE_EXEC. Be careful what you put here.
10. Rerun bin/ckconfig to make sure that all the support files are
properly installed.
