"Fossies" - the Fresh Open Source Software archive 
Here are a few simple steps for installing SiteMgr YAP:
- Download the main distribution SiteMgrYAP-xx.yy.zz.tar.gz
- Download the preferred documentation smgr-manual-xx-yy.zz.tar.gz
- Uncompress the distribution package in a separate directory for your security ...
- Copy (or move) all the .cgi files (in the cgi-bin subdirectory) into your cgi-bin directory.
Check that execution permissions are right.
- Select a directory where you want to store your passwords file, the command line
admin tool, and the sitemgr.conf file. Copy these files to the chosen place.
- Copy (or move) all the html files to the place where you want to reside the html part of
SiteMgr (under the DocumentRoot of your server). I recommend you to do a 'cp -r' of the smgryap
directory; this will keep all the links well.
- Edit the two .cgi files to point the sitemgr.conf path in your system.
- Edit the sitemgr.conf for configuring all the paths.
- Add users with the commandline admin tool
- Optionally install a different version of the user manual into the manual directory by
unpacking the preferred documentation package.
That's all !!
Problems ?
- Check the permissions of the filesi: execution permission for the .cgi, read permission of
all the files and directories, write permission for the user in which the server runs the
script, ...
- ckeck that all the files/directories for the user have the same owner. If not, do a chown -R over
the files/directories managed with sitemgr ( 'man chown' for more datails ;D ).
- Want to use cgi-wrap or suexec ? I didn't test if SiteMgr works well with these. If you get
it working please notify me on how.
- Want to compile .cgi files ? I was able to compile the two cgi's with perlcc, but I didn't
tested it too much ... so I don't really know if there are problems related with compiled .cgi's
More problems ?
- send me an email, I'm writing a FAQ.
