|
System prerequisites:
|
|
|
|
To use this package, you need a kernel with an ISDN-subsystem configured.
|
|
To get a such a kernel, take a clean standard-kernel (Version 2.0.31 or
|
|
> 2.1.57 resp.) enable the isdn-related features you want and build the
|
|
kernel as usual. If applicable some patches may be needed
|
|
|
|
isdn-patches are available at
|
|
|
|
ftp.franken.de:/pub/isdn4linux
|
|
|
|
For using modularized parts of the ISDN-subsystem, newest modutils
|
|
are strongly recommended.
|
|
|
|
3. Configuration, Compilation.
|
|
|
|
Run "make config"
|
|
|
|
This will run an interactive configuration tool and the various
|
|
configuration-scripts for each sub-package. (You may know that
|
|
tool from kernel menuconfig.)
|
|
There is a global configuration directory, where most programs
|
|
expect their configuration files. The default is /etc/isdn.
|
|
|
|
- Alternatively you can edit the .config file by hand (once that
|
|
has been created once with "make config"), and run "make subconfig"
|
|
instead. This might be useful if you want to automate the building
|
|
of the package, e.g. for a Red Hat rpm or a Debian deb.
|
|
|
|
Run "make"
|
|
|
|
This builds all previously selected utilities.
|
|
|
|
4. Installation
|
|
|
|
For the following steps, root permissions are necessary
|
|
|
|
Install the utilities, the man pages and config-files:
|
|
|
|
make install
|
|
|
|
The config files usually are installed in /etc/isdn if not
|
|
specified otherwise during configuration.
|
|
|
|
If no existing ISDN devices in /dev are detected (via an admittedly
|
|
simple test), script/makedev.sh is run during "make install". Check
|
|
that the permissions / groups are suitable for your needs.
|
|
You can run the makedev.sh script again if necessary.
|
|
|
|
5. Application
|
|
|
|
The directory ./etc contains an example startup-script which gets
|
|
not installed automatically, because it MUST BE CONFIGURED IN ANY
|
|
CASE! Please don't try to connect to the Internet without setting
|
|
your own IP-addresses. This script is intended to be used with
|
|
the modularised version of the ISDN-subsystem. Refer to the
|
|
Documentation/isdn subdirectory of your kernel-source-tree for
|
|
more information on configuring Lowlevel drivers.
|
|
|
|
For the utilities refer to the man pages or look into their
|
|
subdirectories for Documentation.
|
|
|
|
For tips, troubleshooting etc. look into the FAQ subdirectory.
