Preparing the installation:

From the Linux root prompt:

# script

Verify matching kernel source is installed:

# rpm -aq | grep kernel-source

The version displayed after kernel-source must match your running kernel 'uname -r'.

Rebuild the source rpm:

# rpmbuild --rebuild 40002086_F.src.rpm
# rpm -i /usr/src/redhat/RPMS/i386/realport-1.5-0.i386.rpm

From an Xterm session, configure your PortServer devices and start the associated daemons:

# /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
