UNIX version

A file `asir.tgz' suitable for the taget machine/architecture is required. After getting it, you have to unpack it by gzip. First of all, determine a derectory where binaries and library files are installed. We call the directory the library directory. The following installs the files in `/usr/local/lib/asir'.

# gzip -dc asir.tgz | ( cd /usr/local/lib; tar xf - )

In this case you don't have to set any environment variable.

You can install them elsewhere.

% gzip -dc asir.tgz | ( cd $HOME; tar xf - )

In this case you have to set the name of the library directory to the environment variable ASIR_LIBDIR.

% setenv ASIR_LIBDIR $HOME/asir

Asir itself is in the library directory. It will be convenient to create a symbolic link to it from `/usr/local/bin' or the user's search path.

# ln -s /usr/local/lib/asir/asir /usr/local/bin/asir

Start `asir', and Asir will immediately terminate leaving you a message as follows.

% /usr/local/bin/asir
asir_key not found.

You need a key for each machine on which you want to run Asir.
In order to get the key, send an e-mail consisting of the following
single line to risa@sec.flab.fujitsu.co.jp.

ASIR XXXXXXXX

After a while, an e-mail will be returned containing only one line like

YYYYYYYY YYYYYYYY YYYYYYYY

Create '.../asir_key'
if necessary and append the returned string to the file.

For UNIX version of Asir, you need a key, a string, for each machine you want to run Asir. In order to get the key, you just need to send an e-mail consisting of a single line like

ASIR XXXXXXXX

to address

risa@sec.flab.fujitsu.co.jp

Here, XXXXXXXX is the machine ID notified in the first message from Asir.

After a while, an e-mail will be returned containing only one line like

YYYYYYYY YYYYYYYY YYYYYYYY

Then, you shall create a new file in the current directory named `asir_key' containing the returned string in one line.

All after this, call again `asir'.

% /usr/local/bin/asir
This is Risa/Asir, Version 991227.
Copyright (C) FUJITSU LABORATORIES LIMITED.
1994-1999. All rights reserved.
[0]

If you get such a prompt (`[0]') from Asir, the key you have is valid to the machine you are currently running asir.

When the file `asir_key' is located on the library directory, all the users of the machine can execute `asir'. The file `asir_key' can contain several lines for several key's. This enables users to run several machines sharing the same library directory by simply adding lines for machines to be used. We shall describe about the file for key's in detail in section Environment variable.

# cp asir_key /usr/local/lib/asir
