    3 Note-1:If your machine has earlier giis versions (<=4.2),please uninstall it and freshly install giis.

   27 Installing giis from Source Code :
   28 ==================================
   29 
   30 To compile and install giis from source code just follow the steps:
   31 
   32 1) Change to source directory.
   33 
   34 	giis_XX/src(Replace XX with appropriate version number,for example giis_4.3)
   35 
   36 2) Run the configure script,
   37 
   38 	./configure
   39 
   40 3) Compile the programs,
   41 
   42 	make
   43 
   44 4) Install the programs,
   45 
   46 	make install
   47 
   48 5) Now Run giis -i.
   49 
   50 6) Finally run following commands,
   51  	cp ../config/hai /giis
   52 	cp ../config/quotes /giis
   53 	cp ../config/giis.conf /etc
   54 
   55 Configuration File Setup:
   56 =========================
   57 config/giis.conf should be edited before running giis installation with config file using command,
   58 sh install_giis.sh 1
   59 It will place the file under /etc.
   60 
   61 
   62 During installation, giis will prompt user for directories that needs to be protected.
   63 After installation user can't configure(add) any new directories.
   64 To overcome this limitation,/etc/giis.conf file allows user to configure directories
   65 (after installation)list that can be protected.
   66 
   67 
   68 During installation ,if auto-detection of device fails you can enter device name directly  in $DEVICE macro.
   69 Example:
   70 $DEVICE = /dev/sdaX$
   71 
   72 Replce X with your device number.Please make sure there is blank space/whitespace before and after = symbol.
   73 The line should have $ symbol at beginning and at the end.
   74 
   75 You can add directories using $DIR macro.Again Please make sure there is blank space/whitespace before and after = symbol.Here too line
   76 should start and end with $ symbol.
   77 
   78 These directory *must* be direct sub-directory of /,while /etc is allowed entry and /etc/something is not allowed
   79 
   80 Valid Examples:
   81 
   82 $DIR = etc$
   83 $DIR = var$
   84 $DIR = opt$
   85 
   86 Invliad options:
   87 $DIR=etc$ 		-- Invalid since there should be whitespace before and after =.
   88 $DEVICE=/dev/sda2$	-- Invalid since there should be white space before and after =.
   89 DIR = etc 		-- Invalid since there should be $ symbol at the beginning and end of line.
   90 $DIR = etc      	-- Invalid since there should be $ at the end of the line.
   91 $DIR = etc $		-- Invalid since there whitespace space before $
   92 
   93 I hope above examples helped you.In simple terms ,
   94 1)There MUST BE single whitespace before and after = 
   95 2)There SHOULD NOT BE any whitespace before or after $.
   96 
   97 
   98 $LEVEL_VALUE ,used to provide Max.Directory depth.Default value Supports upto 10 levels of sub-dir.(dir1/dir2/dir3.../dir10)
