Installation process for installing RealPort in RedHat version 7.2 and 7.3

1. Log the installation:

   # script [ENTER]

2. Verify your kernel source is installed and matches your running kernel by typing:

   # rpm -qa | grep kernel-source
   # uname -r

   The version numbers and extensions must match.

3. In the directory where the driver source rpm is located:

   # rpm --rebuild 4000####_X.src.rpm [ENTER]
   # cd /usr/src/redhat/RPMS/i386

4. Use rpm to install the new driver package by typing:

   # cd /usr/src/redhat/RPMS/i386 [ENTER]
   # rpm -i realport-#.##-1.i386.rpm [ENTER]

5. Load the module by typing and configure your Digi PortServer units using the graphical tool from an Xterm session:

   # insmod dgrp [ENTER]
   # /usr/bin/dgrp/config/dgrp_gui

   Configuring from the command line:

   # /usr/bin/dgrp/config/dgrp_cfg_node init (ttyid) (ip_address) (number_of_ports)

   The following example configures a 16 port PortServer with device names of ttya00 through ttya15:

   # /usr/bin/dgrp/config/dgrp_cfg_node init a 192.168.1.1 16
