This is the DEMO NetCharge package.

docs.html contains all the documentation you need to use and configure
NetCharge. Use 'lynx docs.html' to view this file with lynx or use the
file: URL with a newer graphical browser like Netscape. For the latest
documentation, please check out http://www.bugless.com.

Install.sh is a small shell script that will install:

1.  NetCharge executable in /usr/local/bin
2.  protocol libraries in /usr/lib.( and make symbolic links, run ldconfig)
3.  netcharge.conf in /etc
4.  libnetcharge.a in /usr/local/lib
5.  all the header (*.h) files in /usr/include
5.  NOT libg++.so.27.1.4 OR libstdc++.so.27.1.4.  These ELF libraries
    compiled with gcc-2.7.2 are provided in case your distribution
    didn't provide you with them. You will not have to install these unless
    netcharge tells you they are missing. To install:

    cp libg++.so.27.1.4 /usr/lib
    cp libstdc++.so.27.1.4 /usr/lib
    ldconfig

	You can ftp these ELF libraries from ftp.bugless.com/pub/netcharge/linux
	if you need them. The sources and binaries are available at
		ftp://tsx-11.mit.edu/pub/linux/packages/GCC/

The binaries in utils and cgi are left in their respective directories to
be installed where you see fit. CGI programmers will probably want to install
cgi/c_test in their cgi-bin directory. /usr/local/bin is a good place for
the sample programs in utils/.

Here is a quick list of things you need to do to get NetCharge running:

1.  Install it via ./Install.

2.  Read and follow docs.html on setting up syslog.conf.

3.  Read and follow docs.html on setting up netcharge.conf.
		If you are installing the demo the default values
		are fine since they won't really be used.
		Otherwise pay particular attention to the specific
		protocol sections. ie: if you are configuring for an
		MDI setup read the "MDI Required <Merchant> Settings"
		so you know what configuration options are mandatory
		for MDI.

4.  Run netcharge.
	You'll probably forget some things your first time around so
	keep a virtual console or window open to examine the output of
	/var/log/daemon (your syslogd output).
