Installation
2. Installation
The software is distributed in a tar archive, which extracts into a temporary directory, /tmp/xfax. After the extraction you run a installation script, /tmp/xfax/ INSTALL, which asks questions about your configuration and then puts every- thing in its right place.
Go to the root directory cd /
Extract the archive, xfax42aix.tar for AIX for example tar xvf xfax42aix.tar
Execute the installation script sh /tmp/xfax/INSTALL
Check the installation by running faxmaster
a. /etc/xfax is used for the configuration files or the variable XFAXDIR is set to the directory used.
b. The directory for the executables is included in PATH. c. There is a valid license.
Now you can start the XFAX daemon, faxmaster, and you are ready to send your first fax.
