First, you have to unpack the archive file in some safe location:
|
|
<P>
|
|
<P><P>
|
|
<P>
|
|
If you have a ``modern'' tar, for example from a recent Slackware
|
|
Distribution, you can probably just do a tar -zxvf filename.tgz
|
|
and get the same results.
|
|
<P>
|
|
Unpacking the archive creates a directory named
|
|
sendmail5.65b+IDA1.5+mailx5.3b. In this directory, you find a
|
|
complete installation of sendmail+IDA plus a binary of the
|
|
mailx user agent. All file paths below this directory reflect
|
|
the location where the files should be installed, so it's safe to work
|
|
up a tar command to move 'em over:
