[bwm-tools-tech] Getting started

[Jon <bw...@pa...>]

Hi

Right, it's taken me a few days to get this installed (I think it's 
installed...heh)

Some background info:

Im running Gentoo Linux on a Athlon 1800+, 512mb RAM.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
root@veritas ~/bwm_tools-0.1.8
$ls
AUTHORS      Makefile.in   bwm_graph     config.h.in    depcomp     
ltmain.sh
COPYING      NEWS          bwm_monitor   config.log     doc         missing
ChangeLog    README        bwmd          config.status  include     stamp-h1
INSTALL      TODO          compile       config.sub     install-sh
Makefile     aclocal.m4    config.guess  configure      lib
Makefile.am  bwm_firewall  config.h      configure.ac   libtool
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Above is  pretty much my bwm_tools folder after 'make install'

Below is, as you can see /usr/local/bin
--------------------------------------------------------------------
root@veritas /usr/local/bin
$ls
autorespond  bwm_firewall  bwm_graph  bwm_monitor  bwmd
--------------------------------------------------------------------

How does one get started?

I have attempted to do
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
$./bwmd
BWM Daemon v0.1.8 - Copyright (c) 2003 Linux Based Systems Design

I/O warning : failed to load external entity 
"/usr/local/etc/bwm_tools/firewall.xml"
Failed to load flow data from configuration file!
------------------------------------------------------------------------------

(a) I dont have a /usr/local/etc/
and
(b) How do I go about generating the firewall.xml (which i'd presume to 
be the ruleset) ?

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Many thanks,

-- Jon
