Building and Installation
-------------------------

After downloading and extracting ihost, configure and build as follows;

./configure
make

Then install as root;

make install

You may wish to use one of the following configure options to change
aspects of this process;

  --with-pid-file=FILE
  --with-max-udp-size=SIZE

The first allows you to specify the location of the PID file. The second
allows you to specify the maximum UDP packet size, although you shouldn't
need to change this in normal circumstances.

There are, of course, the usual GNU-style configure options;

  --prefix=PREFIX

For more documentation on the installation process, please read the
INSTALL document.

Running ihost
-------------

Running ihost with the -h flag will provide a list of options. You will
need to know the address and port number of your i-scream server's filter
manager. These details should be given on the command line to ihost.

You may wish to run ihost as a daemon, and the ihostchk.sh script helps
to ensure it's kept running. Alter the details at the top of this script
and add it to your crontab.

Problems?
---------

Please send all questions, problems, and bugs to dev@i-scream.org.uk. We
will do our best to help.

Thank-you for using i-scream software.
