12 ngIRCd is being tested regularly on the following platforms (used
13 version in brackets). The systems that are officially supported are:
16 include('common/platforms.inc');
19 As the ngIRCd complies to common UNIX standards and uses GNU automake
20 and GNU autoconf, chances are that it can be ported to or adapted for
21 further UNIXoid systems.
27 ngIRCd is designed for UNIXoid systems and the installation on a
28 modern UNIX-like system, which is supported by GNU automake and GNU
29 autoconf, shouldn't cause any problems.
32 Typically it looks like this:
35 tar xzf ngircd-<version>.tar.gz<br>
36 cd ngircd-<version><br>
39 </code></p></blockquote>
41 Now, the executing server (normally <code>ngircd</code>) should be in
42 <code>src/ngircd</code>.
46 </code></p></blockquote>
48 The executing server has now been installed in
49 <code>/usr/local/sbin</code>.
52 The configuration file <code>ngircd.conf</code> is now expected in
53 the server directory <code>/usr/local/etc</code>; an exemplary
54 configuration file can be found in the directory <code>doc</code>.
57 Further comments on the installation and configuration can be found
58 in the file <a href="doc/INSTALL">INSTALL</a>.
64 Documentation is compiled in the source package, some in the main
65 directory (such as INSTALL, README, NEWS und COPYING), and some in
66 the sub directory <samp>doc</samp> (such as GIT.txt, FAQ.txt and the
67 exemplary configurations sample-ngircd.conf).
