Welcome to SAINT.  Following are instructions on how to get SAINT
running on your system.  Your system must have the following:

-- A UNIX operating system (Linux, Solaris, AIX, etc.)
-- Perl 5.000 or better (the most current version at ship-time
   is 5.004_04).
-- A Web browser (Mosaic, Lynx, Netscape, Chimera, etc.).  SAINT is designed
   to run in a graphical Web browser, although it will work just as
   well in a text-based one, it just won't be very pretty.
-- A machine that can handle the truth, I mean the strains of running SAINT.
   SAINT is designed to be very aggressive with system resources, so if you
   are planning to scan a large number of hosts, you will need a powerful
   machine.

To get SAINT running, do the following:

1. Run `make`.  Make will prompt you for your system type.  Now run `make <system-type>`, where
   <system-type> is one of the systems listed by running `make`.

2. Run `perl reconfig`.  This script will adjust the paths of programs used by
   SAINT.  It will also try to find your Web browser.  If SAINT is unable to
   find it, edit the file config/paths.pl and set the line:

         $MOSAIC="program_name";

   to the full path of your Web browser.  Be sure to preserve the quotes and the semicolon.

3. If you are behind a firewall, you should unset your proxy environment variables, such as
   $http_proxy, $file_proxy, $socks_ns, etc, and change your Web browser to not use your
   SOCKS host or HTTP proxy.

4. Run SAINT.  You can run it in interactive mode by typing `./saint`. Or, SAINT can be run
   from the command-line.  Command-line options can be determined by typing `./saint -h`.

Help on running SAINT can be found via interactive mode, by clicking on Documentation from the
list of links on the left-hand side of the interface. Thanks for using SAINT, and we hope that
it works well for you.  Questions or comments should be directed to: saint@wwdsi.com.

SAINT is based on SATAN, written and created by Dan Farmer and Wietse Venema.
Except for their wonderful work on the original product, they are in no other way 
associated with SAINT.  Please do not contact them with problems as they know nothing 
about SAINT or it's development.
