The FrontPage Server Extensions
-------------------------------

The Microsoft FrontPage 2002 Server Extensions are a set of programs on a Web
server that support administering, authoring, and browsing a FrontPage-extended
Web site. For more information concerning the FrontPage Server Extensions have a
look at the Microsoft FrontPage Server Extensions Resource Kit
<http://officeupdate.microsoft.com/frontpage/wpp/serk/>.

INSTALLATION
============

Before you read anything here, you should note that fpexec is very a unsecure
way to handle these fp binarys. How secure it is depends on your webserver configuration.
Set -DFP_UID_MIN -DFP_GID_MIN carefully, so a suid change cannot be exploited locally
to a user which is really important.

Step 1: Install the FrontPage Server Extensions 

	Normally they will be installed in /usr/local/frontpage.
	If you use FreeBSD, you can install any of these ports in
	/usr/ports/www:

	frontpage        frontpage-fr     frontpage-ko     frontpage-th
	frontpage-ar     frontpage-he     frontpage-nl     frontpage-zh
	frontpage-de     frontpage-it     frontpage-pt_BR
	frontpage-es     frontpage-ja     frontpage-sv


Step 2: Untar/zip the distfile mod_frontpage-1.6.tar.gz and generate the Makefile

	If you use FreeBSD, just make:

	$ cd /usr/ports/www/mod_frontpage
	$ make install

	and you can skip to Step 5 :-)

	For all other OS's:
	
	$ tar -xzf mod_frontpage-1.6.tar.gz
	$ perl Makefile.PL

	
Step 3: Adjust the Makefile for your needs.

	Look into fpexec.h if you need some description for some tunables.


Step 4: Build and installation

	Just type:

	$ make && make install

	Then you can restart apache:

	$ apachectl restart

	Important: If you already have mod_frontpage installed,
	do not reload the modules with restart. Shut down the
	server and start it again:

	$ apachectl stop && apachectl restart
	

Step 5: Tests

	Try to open the FrontPage web with the FrontPage client 
	Also try to open the /_vti_bin/_vti_adm/fpadmcgi.exe
	web based user administration.


Step 6: Sekt oder Selters 

	Send bugreports to mbr@freebsd.org.
