1.1     ! root        1: [ READ-ME - Tue Jul 25 09:25:56 1989 - ISODE image programs notes - /mtr ]
        !             2: 
        !             3: 
        !             4:     1.  Get a copy of ISODE 5.2 or later for your system.  Install it.
        !             5: 
        !             6: 
        !             7:     2.  Bring-up the OSI Directory on one host in your site.  This host
        !             8:     must run ISODE.  The other hosts need only run the programs in
        !             9:     this directory.  Besides these programs, the others hosts will
        !            10:     need a copy of the /usr/etc/isotailor file from the master host.
        !            11: 
        !            12: 
        !            13:     3.  Go to the others/quipu/photo/ directory.  Make it and install
        !            14:     it.  This will create a directory /usr/etc/g3fax/ which contains the
        !            15:     fax decoding routines/databases needed by the image programs.
        !            16: 
        !            17: 
        !            18:     3.  Edit the Makefile in this directory, others/images/.  Change the
        !            19:     definitions of BINDIR, SBINDIR, and ETCDIR as appropriate.
        !            20: 
        !            21: 
        !            22:     4.  Make it and install it.
        !            23: 
        !            24: 
        !            25:     5.  Get a copy of MH 6.5 or greater.  You don't need to do this if you are
        !            26:     interested in running only xwho. 
        !            27: 
        !            28: 
        !            29:     6.  Great, so you have everything in place except the images that
        !            30:     the OSI Directory will provide.  How you get these images (which
        !            31:     should be in g3fax bitmaps in ASN.1 bitstring format) is your problem.
        !            32:     Typically, for the face agent 64x64 bitmaps are good.  One example
        !            33:     is in the file "sk".
        !            34: 
        !            35:     Here's a suggestion.  One of the programs installed in /usr/etc/g3fax/
        !            36:     is called pr2pe.  It will take a Sun raster file image and convert
        !            37:     it to the desired format.  Invoke pr2pe thusly: 
        !            38: 
        !            39:        % /usr/etc/g3fax/pr2pe < rasterfile > faxfile
        !            40: 
        !            41:     The next thing you need to do is to add a photo attribute to the
        !            42:     DN entry for each person you have a picture of.  For example, if my DN
        !            43:     is
        !            44: 
        !            45:        c=US@o=DMD@cn=Marshall T. Rose
        !            46: 
        !            47:     Then, you edit the file
        !            48: 
        !            49:        /usr/etc/quipu/dsa/c=US/o=DMD/EDB
        !            50: 
        !            51:     and look for an entry that starts with
        !            52: 
        !            53:        cn=Marshall T. Rose
        !            54: 
        !            55:     you then add this line
        !            56: 
        !            57:        photo={FILE}
        !            58: 
        !            59:     You now do
        !            60: 
        !            61:        % cp faxfile /usr/etc/quipu/dsa/c=US/o=DMD/"cn=Marshall T. Rose".photo
        !            62: 
        !            63:     (Note the use of quotes to include the spaces in the filename!)
        !            64: 
        !            65:     Next, you re-start QUIPU.
        !            66: 
        !            67:     Repeat this step for all of the images of people you have.  If you
        !            68:     don't control the DSA responsible for some person, then you need to
        !            69:     contact the DSA administrator and get them to add the image for you.
        !            70:     How they do this if they are running something other than a QUIPU
        !            71:     DSA is your problem.
        !            72: 
        !            73:     7.  Usage tips:  when I start X, I use a shell script.  the first
        !            74:     thing the script does is
        !            75: 
        !            76:        FACEPROC="`hostname` 6000" export FACEPROC
        !            77: 
        !            78:     then xinit is invoked.  When xterm starts under xinit, it runs
        !            79:     another shell script that ends with: 
        !            80: 
        !            81:        exec xface -e -u
        !            82: 
        !            83:     By having the script exec xface, xface is run as a direct child of
        !            84:     the xterm shell.  Hence, when this shell exits and the X server goes
        !            85:     away, the -u switch will have xface exit as well.  
        !            86: 
        !            87: 
        !            88: Good luck,
        !            89: 
        !            90: /mtr
