It's almost impossible to install and configure ht://Dig without having shell access to the system on which you want to run it, whether through ssh or telnet. > But there was always a fault. > my ssh- program (putty) said not to have found the file although it > exists if I used the command exec configure or exec ./configure or > exec %./configure > I dont know what the meaning of % and ./ is. > Please, can so. explane me the configuration a bit easier?? I don't know why you're putting in the "exec" command. There's no mention of it in the documentation that I can recall, and you shouldn't be putting that in front of the commands you run if you're using a standard UNIX/Linux shell. In the documentation, the "%" before a command would be the shell prompt, which varies from system to system. You don't type that part. The "./" in front of commands like configure are to tell the shell you want to run the command script that's in the current directory, rather than searching through the directories in $PATH for the command. I would recommend that you spend some time getting familiar with the shell in UNIX or Linux before you attempt anything as elaborate as compiling and installing a software package.
