John,
I've never used OSX but it would go like this:
1) Install the perl module Parse::RecDescent as follows:
a) Logon as root and enter the following command
b) perl -MCPAN -e shell
c) If you've never run a CPAN shell on that host you will get a
question about manually configuring CPAN, you can answer "N"
to let perl attempt to autoconfig
d) You will then get a CPAN shell prompt
e) cpan> install Parse::RecDescent
f) You will see a lot of download and install activity scroll by,
followed by the "cpan>" prompt, enter "quit" to exit.
2) Extract and run the FreeBilling v.02 programs
a) Logon as a non-root user and change to directory holding the
FreeBv.02.tar.gz file
b) Extract the FreeBv.02.tar.gz archive with tar as follows:
c) tar -xzvf FreeBv.02.tar.gz
d) cd FreeBv.02
e) ./go.sh
f) ./out.pl
g) ./out.pl > anyfile.txt {to capture the output to a file}
Most of this is in the README file that is in the archive, but it's
not really step by step.
Hope this helps,
Ron
