Installing Miva
To install Miva on your Virtual Server, simply Telnet or SSH to your server and do the following:

Run the Miva install program that matches your Virtual Server O/S.

  

FreeBSD
% vinstall miva

BSD/OS
% /usr/local/contrib/miva-install

NOTE: If your Virtual Server was ordered after Nov 22, 1999, you are likely running FreeBSD. To find out which O/S your Virtual Server is running, use the uname command:

% uname

If your Virtual Server is not already running FreeBSD, Upgrade to a New FreeBSD Virtual Server today!
Run the vsmtprelay command to enable Miva to send e-mail. Substitute your Virtual Server IP address below for YOUR.IP.ADD.RESS: 
% vsmtprelay add YOUR.IP.ADD.RESS 2147483647

Although this release should be backward compatible, the miva-install script does not replace any existing HTMLscript files from prior distributions. Therefore, if you are Upgrading Miva/HTMLScript, we strongly advise you to concurrently run both Miva and the prior version of HTMLScript to ensure that your existing applets continue to function properly. If errors are reported, we recommend that you make the necessary conversion to your HTMLScript applets so that you can take advantage of the support for and performance enhancements of the new Miva release.

The distribution is bundled with many ready to run applications.
