This is Sharity's Readme file for Unix Experts.

Installing Sharity's Unix Tools

Since you are a Unix expert, we are be a bit more technical than in the main Readme file. We assume that you know what symbolic links are, how to set environment variables and how to use a shell.

In order to use the commandline interface to Sharity, the Sharity tools should be in your search path. You can achieve this in two ways:

1.	You extend your shell's search path by the path /Library/StartupItems/Sharity/bin. For tcsh, edit the file ~/.cshrc and add a line:

setenv PATH ${PATH}:/Library/StartupItems/Sharity/bin

2.	You create symbolic links in one of the directories in the search path to the files at /Library/StartupItems/Sharity/bin. The following shell script snippet executed in a directory in the search path will do this:

ln -s /Library/StartupItems/Sharity/bin/sharity cifslicense
ln -s /Library/StartupItems/Sharity/bin/sharity cifslist
ln -s /Library/StartupItems/Sharity/bin/sharity cifslogin
ln -s /Library/StartupItems/Sharity/bin/sharity cifslogout
ln -s /Library/StartupItems/Sharity/bin/sharity cifsmount
ln -s /Library/StartupItems/Sharity/bin/sharity cifsstore
ln -s /Library/StartupItems/Sharity/bin/sharity cifsstoremnt
ln -s /Library/StartupItems/Sharity/bin/sharity cifsumount
ln -s /Library/StartupItems/Sharity/bin/sharity sharity

	We recommend the directory /usr/local/bin as the home of the symbolic links.

Learning about the Commandline Interface

All commandline tools support the options "-v" for "version", "-h" for a short help and "-man" for the full manual page. Please use the "-man" option for more information.
