Quick installation guide
========================

1. For Windows

	a. Grab self-extracting zip file, 
	infoscope_setup_x_x.exe.

	b. Double click on the file and follow instructions to
	install.

	c. Open DOS window.

	d. In the DOS window, set JAVA_HOME environment variable.  
	JAVA_HOME should point to the directory where Java is
	installed, i.e.	%JAVA_HOME%/bin/java should run JRE.

	(NOTE: You need a JRE later than version 1.3.x to properly
	run the server and client.)
	
		set JAVA_HOME=c:\jdk1.3

	e. Change the working directory to where you've installed the
	InfoScope Server.  For example, if default path is used and
	installed under c:\Program Files\InfoScope_x.x

		cd c:\Program Files\infoscope_x.x\conf

	f. Edit the ngserver.auth file to include your client
	machines' IPs from which the server will be accessed.  For
	example, if you are running client API from 192.168.1.17, 
	append the file by 192.168.1.17.

	g. Change the working directory to 'bin'.

		cd ..\bin

	h. Run ngServer by typing:

		ngserver start

2. For Unix

	a. Grab tar-ball file, infoscope_x_x.tar.gz

	b. Unzip the file.

		gunzip infoscope_<version>.tar.gz

	c. Untar the file in the directory where you want to
	install the ngServer.

		mv infoscope_<version>.tar <target_directory>
		cd <target_directory>
		tar -xf infoscope_<version>.tar

	d. Set JAVA_HOME environment variable.
	JAVA_HOME should point to the directory where Java is 
	installed, i.e. $JAVA_HOME/bin/java should run JVM.
	
	In bash/sh
		JAVA_HOME=/usr/java/jre1.3.1; export JAVA_HOME
	In tcsh
		setenv JAVA_HOME /usr/java/jre1.3.1

	e. Set NG_SERVER_HOME environment variable.
	NG_SERVER_HOME should point to the directory where
	ngServer is installed, i.e. <target_directory> in c.

	In bash/sh
		NG_SERVER_HOME=<target_directory>; 
		export NG_SERVER_HOME
	In tcsh
		setenv NG_SERVER_HOME <target_directory>
	
	f. Change the directory to $NG_SERVER_HOME.

		cd $NG_SERVER_HOME/bin

	g. Change the mode of ngserver.sh.

		chmod 775 ngserver.sh

	h. Run ngServer by typing:
	
		./ngserver.sh start
