INSTALLATION AND CONFIGURATION

Just decompress and untar the source (which you should have done by now,
if you're reading this...), into your webserver's document root.

There is a configuration file called config.php.new. If this a brand new
installation, you should copy this file to config.php and edit it.

- make sure your 'php.ini' file's include_path entry contains "."
- make sure your 'php.ini' has safe_mode set to 'off'.

phpSysInfo require php-xml extension.

Please keep in the mind that because phpSysInfo requires access to many
files in /proc and other system binary you **MUST DISABLE** php's
safe_mode.  Please see the PHP documentation for information on how you
can do this.

That's it.  Restart your webserver (if you changed php.ini), and voila.

KNOWN PROBLEMS

- phpSysInfo is not compatible with SELinux Systems
- small bug under FreeBSD with memory reporting

PLATFORM SPECIFIC ISSUES

- Windows with IIS
  On Windows systems we get our informations through the WMI interface.
  If you run phpSysInfo on the IIS webserver, phpSysInfo will not connect
  to the WMI interface for security reasons. At this point you MUST set
  an authentication mechanism for the directory in the IIS admin
  interface for the directory where phpSysInfo is installed. Then you
  will be asked for an user and a password when opening the page. At this
  point it is necassary to log in with an user that will be able to 
  connect to the WMI interface. If you use the wrong user and/or password
  you might get an "ACCESS DENIED ERROR".

SENSOR RELATED INFORMATION

- MBM5
  Make sure you set MBM5 Interval Logging to csv and to the data
  directory of phpSysInfo. The file must be called MBM5. Also make sure
  MBM5 doesn't add symbols to the values. This is a Quick MBM5 log parser,
  need more csv logs to make it better.

WHAT TO DO IF IT DOESN'T WORK

First make sure you've read this file completely, especially the
"INSTALLATION AND CONFIGURATION" section.  If it still doesn't work then
you can:

Submit a bug on SourceForge. (preferred)
	(http://sourceforge.net/projects/phpsysinfo/)
Ask for help in the forum
	(http://sourceforge.net/projects/phpsysinfo/)

!! If you have any problems, please set PSI_DEBUG to true in config.php
   and include any error messages in your bug report / help request !!!
