RE: {bb} more problems running bb on fedora core 4 system

["Gene Beaird" <bgbeaird@sbcglobal.net>]

Phil,

That was the process I was trying, but was getting the can't find this file
error when trying.  That was when I continued with working on the client
side, thinking that there may have been more to it there.

With what I have, installing the bbserver items, it simply does not run on
my system.

Yes, the scripts bb-disk; bb-cpu; bb-msgs; bb-procs and bb-local are
part of the client and do not belong in the server. The scripts bb-combo
and bb-display should be present in the server "bin" directory.

Gene, the recommended procedure would be to install the server part
first, and get that running, before worrying about the client part.
If you're going to start again from scratch (which is probably safest),
it can be helpful to move the old directory out of the way, rather
than deleting it. In that way, you have something to refer to while
you configure again.

Cheers, Phil.
