Really Quick and Dirty Install Procedure for Big Brother
========================================================

1.	cd ./doc, and run ./bb-config <OS-NAME>
	where OS-NAME is freebsd, solaris, linux, hpux10, sunos, 
				ultrix, osf, netbsd
	If you're not running one of the above, read the README

2.	cd ../src
	type "make"
	then type "make install"

3.	cd ..
	edit runbb.sh, set BBHOME to the current directory.

4.	cd etc

	edit bb-hosts, but your host files in there.  Refer to doc/README.
	This is the core of Big Brother.  You must read the docs here.
	edit bbdef.sh, set alarm levels and things.

5.	cd ..
	./runbb.sh &

6.	Debug, and look at all the docs.

7.	Check the online documentation!  It lives under:
	http://www.iti.qc.ca/iti/users/sean/

For the Web Stuff
=================

All Web-based things live in the www directory.  In order for the bb
stuff to work correctly, this directory must be linked into your Web
site somewhere.  I suggest something like the following:

ln -s /home/sean/bb/www /WWW/bb (where /WWW is the Document Root dir).

You should then be able to access BB with the URL http:/bb/bb.html

Have fun.
