Hi all, I just installed FEDORA to drive away from Microsoft and I nearly completely new to UNIX/Linux/Fedora, but I have a lot of experience (working in IT) with VMS, OpenVMS and W2K, WNT... First of al I configured YUM to use download servers nearby and with YUM UPGRADE a upgraded my fedora to 2.6.8.-1.521. I accepted everyting so i think my whole system is upgraded. I wanted to install some software (KNetStats, http://knetstats.sourceforge.net/), downloaded it a bzipped TAR file. I think the extraction of the files worked. but 1. where to extract to, a specific folder?? 2. How to install: I read the README file, and I sure I can type over all the commends, but I don't know 1. Do I have to 'cd' to a specific folder first? 2. what else do I have to do first.. Here is the readme file: To install: type: ./configure make make install Note.: The compilation is qmake based, not automake/autoconf based. To run, type: knetstats Any doubts or suggestions, hugo_pl@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Hugo, I posted this to the list in stead of just mailing you. I nearly sure that I'm not the only newbie here!! -- With kind regards/Met vriendelijke groet, Hans Troost
