          Installing Roxen Challenger 1.2 - the Source distribution
          +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

  0. Make sure you have a working C-compiler for your machine.

  1. Make a build directory (e.g. mkdir build), and cd to it.

  2. Mount the Roxen 1.2 CD somewhere in your filesystem (e.g.
     volcheck).

  3. Type
     <path_to_roxencd>/source/configure --prefix=<wanted_base_path_for_Roxen>
     (defaults to /usr/local, thus placing Roxen in /usr/local/roxen/)
     followed by make and make install to build the binaries and copy them 
     to the correct place.

     You can later on move the 'roxen' directory that will be
     created when you type 'make install' to anywhere in your
     filesystem. Roxen does not keep any absolute paths.
     
  4. If everything worked fine and the compilation is done, type 
     cd <dir>/server.

  5. Start the install script by typing ./install.

  6. Answer the simple questions and wait for your client.

  7. If everything worked, configure the server, otherwise move on to the
     troubleshooting section on the roxen WWW-pages. 

 Once you have installed the server, consider joining the Roxen
 mailinglist (by sending a mail to roxen-request@infovav.se, with
 the Subject: subscribe).

Example installation session:

bash$ mkdir build
bash$ cd build
bash$ volcheck
bash$ /cdrom/roxencd/source/configure --prefix=/usr/www

<Lots and lots of checks...>

bash$ make install

<Lots and lots of compilations>

bash$ cd /usr/www/roxen/server
bash$ ./install
<answer a few questions>
