Installation

After the compressed file has been downloaded, it must be unpacked with the gunzip utility and untarred. The executable is now ready to run.

        $ cd /opt
        $ gzcat injun-1.0.0-solaris-5.6-sparc.tar.gz | tar xvf -

The package can be placed in any directory, it has no special requirements such as privilege, although the modules loaded may require it (eg., upsd).

Ensure the LD_LIBRARY_PATH environment variable is defined as appropriate to include the lib directory. This must be done before Injun is started, eg.,

        $ LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$LD_LIBRARY_PATH:/opt/injun-1.0.0/lib

An example start and stop script is provided in the bin directory as the file injunrc, this should be edited to suit the installation location before use.

Starting Injun

Injun can be started by any user.

        $ ./injun -v
        injun: 1.0.0 (Feb 08 2000 11:10:56)
        $ ./injun
        $

After execution the program drops into the background and is now ready to use.

The next step in using Injun is to start a web browser.

        $ netscape &
        $

Once your web browser is running you simply enter the Injun URL which will take the form of http://machine_name:8765/injun/index.html where machine_name is the name of the computer that you started Injun on.

Note: they do not have to be the same machine

Example: If you are starting both injun and the browser on the same machine then the url would be http://localhost:8765/injun/index.html

Stopping Injun

Simply select the exit option from Injun's main menu.

Note: This option will not be present if Injun was started with the administartion functions disabled. If this is the case then the process can be stopped by sending it a SIGTERM signal.

FAQ

I start Injun but it simply disappears without a message !

            $ ./injun
            $

Don't panic, this is normal. Injun runs as a daemon and drops into the background. It is still running but as a daemon. Try contacting Injun at http://machine_name:8765/injun/ ...

This demonic behaviour can be disabled by means of the -n command line argument. Try this.

            $ ./injun -n
            $

See, no background !

Operating System Specifics
