1.       FTP to pqpf.sys.virginia.edu, logging in as "www" with password "******", and type the following lines in sequence:

$ cd RFI_Files <return>
$ get WFO_RFI_Install.tar <return>
$ quit <return>
$ tar –xvf WFO_RFI_Install.tar <return>
$ cd system_files <return>
$ make cpp <return>
$ rm rfc_viewck.exe <return>
$ chmod +x *all

2.       Decide on the location of the following directories:

• RFI system directory: The directory that is to contain all files necessary to run rfick.exe and viewck.exe.
• CVF directory: The directory that is to contain output from the RFI constructor.
• rfick output directory: The directory that is to contain output from rfick.exe.
• viewck output directory: The directory that is to contain output from viewck.exe.
• web-server directory: The directory on the web-server machine that is to contain the WFO’s viewer html pages. If the system machine and web-server machine are the same, viewck output directory should be identical to this.
• FTP directory: The directory on the watches/warnings machine that is to contain the html pages for the RFI constructor.
• RFI input directory: The directory on the system machine that will contain two subdirectories, bfs and esp, which will contain the RFI input files for the BFS and ESP systems, respectively.

3.       Add the following lines to the APPS_DEFAULTS file:

rfi_sys_dir : <RFI system directory>
cvf_dir : <CVF directory>
con_out_dir : <rfick output directory>
view_out_dir : <viewck output directory>
rfi_input : <RFI input directory>

4.       Copy the contents of the system_files directory to RFI system directory.
 

5.       FTP the contents of the html_files directory to FTP directory on the watches/warnings machine and web-server directory on the web-server machine (this may just require a copy if the web-server and system machines are the same). The mode of FTP must be binary.

6.       Copy the file identitydb.obj as described in Miscellaneous Tasks.
