  First, before even touching Unidel, install these programs
and become familiar with them if you haven't already:

    UseNet News (>2.11) or C-News (other versions may work also)
    SMail (>2.5) (unless your system already handles '@' addressing)
    your local mailer program
    your local paging program ('more', 'less' or 'pg')
    rz and sz (optional, for BBS operation)

News and SMail are fairly common and easy to pick up, RZ/SZ is a
little harder but is worth the effort as it is a file transfer
program for call-in users.

  You should also be familiar with these parts of UNIX operating
system:

    passwd file
    Adding new users
    UUCP
    ed, vi or another editor (for working with the 'localize.sh'
       shell, if needed)
    C (for tinkering with 'defs.h', if needed)
 
  After all that, edit the localize.sh file that comes with Unidel to
reflect your system and type 'make', the result should be an
executable file called 'unidel' and it should run first time if News
is all set up.  Copy unidel to /usr/bin or a local bin directory for
others to use.

  Refer to the other files in the 'doc' directory for more detailed
info on security and general use of Unidel.  Refer to the 'lib'
directory for info on making floors and file directories.  Refer to
bbsinstall.doc for instructions and hints on installing Unidel as a
call-in BBS program.

  Once you're all set up, drop me a note at ken@bitsko.slc.ut.us or
uunet!bitsko.slc.ut.us!ken and I'll add you onto the Unidel mailing
list.  If you set your system up as a dial-in BBS, let me know and
I'll add you to the Unidel and Room-based Systems BBS listings, please
include your UseNet directory form that comes with News.
