Spong 2.7.0 Installation Instructions
-------------------------------------

This version of Spong is introducing a new method of partially configuring
and install Spong. The method uses Makefiles and the make command.  This new method will add you in creating client distributions by
OS for other hosts.  You will still need to read the Admin Guide in
SPONG/www/docs/ and other related documentation in order to fully configure
Spong.

*** Important ***

Your make command must be a relatively modern version. The stock make command
in most commercial UNIX OSs will not work. I recommend GNU's version of the
make command. 

The old "./build' method of still supported in this release of Spong. If you
have any problems with the new Makefile method, you may use the './build'
method. You can the full doucmentation on how to install and configuration
Spong in the Admin Guide in the SPONG/www/docs/ directory.

There is one addition step that your need to perform. The spong.conf file has
been renamed for the new Makefile/make installation method. You will need to
rename the SPONG/config/spong.conf-sample file to spong.conf before running
the './build' program

*** End Important ***

Server Installation
-------------------

1. edit the config.mk file to taste.

      Most of the variables in config.mk are discussed in the spong.conf
      doc file (see SPONG/www/html/spong.conf.html). The ADMUSER and ADMGROUP
      varirable are the user id  and group id that the Spong programs will
      run under.

2. Configure and install the server and client programs on the server.

      make server


External Client Installation
----------------------------

1. edit the config.mk file to taste

2. Install the client into OS-client/ directory.

       make client

Note: You can create clients for other operating system without having to edit
      the config.mk file. You can set the SYSTEM variable on the command
      line.

       make client SYSTEM=solaris

3. Install the client on other clients by copying the /OS-client/ directory
   into the $PREFIX directory (defined in config.mk) on the destination 
   client host.
