Compiling i3 on Linux

1. Requirements (only if you want to compile the client/server proxy)
   • Re-compile the kernel (If you have recent versions of Redhat/Mandrake/Suse, you need not recompile the kernel).
     • Set kernel options under "Networking Options -> IP: Netfilter Configuration" for packet filtering and mangling.
     • Set "Network device support -> Universal TUN/TAP device driver support".
     Normally, ReHat, SuSE and other distributions have these options set, so mostly nothing has to be done here.
   • Install binary and development packages for:
     • iptables
     • openssl (>= 0.9.7a)
     • libxml2
     • Berkeley DB (if you use the RON module for the proxy)
     • MySQL (if you use the name allocator server)
     You can use 'urpmi' (mandrake) or 'apt' or 'yum' for this purpose
2. Download the i3 distribution.
3. Once you have downloaded the i3 distribution, do the following:

   tar -zxvf i3_X_Y.tar.gz cd i3_X_Y ./configure make all (or alternative "make" only the necessary components)
