Step 2 Extract the files from the CD/Solaris/files.tar archive (if not extracted in a previous procedure) to a temporary directory on your hard drive by typing:

cd /tmp/ctctmp/Solaris/Netscape

tar -vxf communicator-v476-us.sparc-sun-solaris2.5.1.tar cd communicator-v476.sparc-sun-solaris2.5.1

Step 3 If gzip (required) is not installed, install it now by typing:

mkdir -p /usr/local/bin

cp /tmp/ctctmp/Solaris/Netscape/gzip /usr/local/bin

Step 4 Follow the instructions in: /var/tmp/Solaris/Netscape/navigator-v476.sparc-sun-solaris2.5.1/README.install.

It may be necessary to become root (by typing su root) to install Netscape in the /opt/NSCPcom/ directory as recommended.

When prompted for the Netscape software location, type:

/opt/NSCPcom

Netscape is installed in the [/opt/netscape]: /opt/NSCPcom directory.

You must ensure that /usr/local/bin and /opt/NSCPcom are in the following search path:

csh: % set path = ( /usr/local/bin /opt/NSCPcom $path )

sh or ksh: # PATH=/usr/local/bin:/opt/NSCPcom:$PATH

# export PATH

Procedure: Install the Java Files (Solaris)

If JRE 1.3.0_01 with Java 1.3 plug-in is not installed on the workstation, complete Steps 1 – 8 to install it from the Cisco ONS 15327 System Software Version 1.0.1 CD. If JRE 1.3.0_01 with 1.3 plug-in is installed, skip to Step 10.

Step 1 Insert the Cisco ONS 15327 System Software Version 1.0.1 CD into your CD-ROM drive. If the directory of the CD does not open automatically, open it.

Step 2 Extract the files from the CD/Solaris/files.tar archive (if not extracted in a previous procedure) to a temporary directory on your hard drive by typing:

mkdir /tmp/ctctmp cd /tmp/ctctmp

tar -xvf /CD/solaris/files.tar

Step 3 Go to the /tmp/ctctmp/Solaris/Jre1.3.0_01/ directory and unpack the appropriate tar archive:

For Solaris 2.6, unpack the *.6.tar archive

For Solaris 2.7, unpack the *.7.tar archive

For Solaris 2.8, unpack the *.8.tar archive

The /tmp/ctctmp/Solaris/Jre1.3.0_01/ directory contains the Java Runtime for Solaris.

The directory also contains the necessary patch files for Solaris 2.6, 2.7, and 2.8.

Determine the release level of your operating system by typing:
