Thanks for the replies so far - Everyone has been very
helpful. I
have one final question. I deleted the "ser" directory from /usr/sbin
as suggested. I am using Suse Linux 9.0 so then I modified the
"profile" file in the /etc directory with the following:
PATH="$PATH:/usr/local/sbin/ser:."
Then I carried out the cvs instructions from the iptel site (as
detailed at end of this mail) to install SER 0.9.1. When I run "ser
-V" I now see that SER has been updated. However when I run
/usr/local/sbin/serctl start to start SER. I get an error:
Starting SER: PID file /var/run/ser.pid does not exist -- SER start
failed.
I used to start SER using /etc/init.d/ser start. That also doesn't
work. What could be wrong? Also where is my new ser.cfg file stored?
My old one is still in /etc/ser.
Thanks again.
Aisling.
cd /usr/src
export CVSROOT=:pserver:anonymous@cvs.berlios.de:/cvsroot/ser
cvs login
[enter for password]
"cvs co -r rel_0_9_0 sip_router" from onsip site.
cd sip_router
make all
make install

Each linux user has an environment variable called
PATH. You can set
your path in the .bash_profile (assuming a redhat linux distro).
Consult your linux distro for setting environment variables.
On most you can just do this:
export PATH=$PATH:/usr/local/sbin/
But this will only be for you current logged in session. When you
exit
the bash shell this setting will be lost.

Paul
