ETFTP version 1.1.3 was implemented in ANSI C for UNIX using Linux RedHat
5.1. This implementation could work on other UNIX systems.



Basic Installation
==================

   These are generic installation instructions.

   The `configure' shell script attempts to guess correct values for
various system-dependent variables used during compilation.  It uses
those values to create a `Makefile' in each directory of the package.
It may also create one or more `.h' files containing system-dependent
definitions.  Finally, it creates a shell script `config.status' that
you can run in the future to recreate the current configuration, a file
`config.cache' that saves the results of its tests to speed up
reconfiguring, and a file `config.log' containing compiler output
(useful mainly for debugging `configure').

   If you need to do unusual things to compile the package, please try
to figure out how `configure' could check whether to do them, and mail
diffs or instructions to the address given in the `README' so they can
be considered for the next release.  If at some point `config.cache'
contains results you don't want to keep, you may remove or edit it.

   The file `configure.in' is used to create `configure' by a program
called `autoconf'.  You only need `configure.in' if you want to change
it or regenerate `configure' using a newer version of `autoconf'.

The simplest way to compile and install this package is:

  1. `cd' to the directory containing the package's source code and type
     `./configure' to configure the package for your system.  If you're
     using `csh' on an old version of System V, you might need to type
     `sh ./configure' instead to prevent `csh' from trying to execute
     `configure' itself.

     Running `configure' takes awhile.  While running, it prints some
     messages telling which features it is checking for.

  2. Type `make' to compile the package including both clinet and server
     parts.  Type `make etftp' to only compile the client part or
     `make etftpd' to only compile the server part.

  3. Type `make install' to install both client and server programs.
     Type `make install-client' to install only the client program or
     `make install-server' to install only the server program.

     `make install' and `make install-server' also creates a symbolic
     link `in.etftpd' that points to etftpd and resides where the server
     daemon is located (see Installation names below).  The symbolic link
     used by the inetd (see Running ETFTP below).

  4. You can remove the program binaries and object files from the
     source directory by typing `make clean'.  To also remove the files
     that `configure' created (so you can compile the package for a
     different kind of computer), type `make distclean'.



Installation Names
==================

   By default, `make install' will install the package's client file in
`/usr/local/bin' and the server files in `/usr/local/sbin'.  You can
specify an installation prefix other than `/usr/local' by giving
`configure' the option `--prefix=PATH'.

   You can specify separate installation prefixes for
architecture-specific files and architecture-independent files.  If you
give `configure' the option `--exec-prefix=PATH', the package will use
PATH as the prefix for installing programs and libraries.
Documentation and other data files will still use the regular prefix.



Uninstall the package
=====================

   To unistall the package, simply type `make uninstall' and the binary
files will be removed.  Source files will still remain intact.



Make a distribution
===================

   To make a distribution of the package, type `make dist' for collecting
source and install files together in a compressed tar file.  Freely
distribute this package under GNU GPL.
