In order to install the AXIGEN Mail Server on gcc4 based distributions (RHEL, Fedora Core, Mandriva, SUSE), follow these instructions:

1. Unzip installation file

Issue the following command, in the same directory as the downloaded file, to unzip the installation file:
tar xzvf <install kit file>

For example, to unpack the AXIGEN installation file type the command below in the directory where the file is located:
tar xzvf axigen-6.1.0.i386.rpm.tar.gz

2. Installation

Issue (while logged in as root) the following command, from the same directory as the rpm file:
rpm -ivh axigen-version-build.i386.rpm

For instance, the corresponding command for the 6.1 AXIGEN version will be:
rpm -ivh axigen-6.1.0-1.i386.rpm

After the installation, no daemons or related application will be started.
