-Installing Rocksolid Light (rslight) - a web based news client
-
-rslight is based on NewsPortal, which discontinued development in 2008, and was 
-developed by Florian Amrhein https://florian-amrhein.de/newsportal/
-
-rslight contains some major code and feature changes, but would not exist 
-without NewsPortal as a basis for development.
-
-Requirements:
-
-You will need a web server: rslight has been tested with apache2, lighttpd, nginx
-and synchronet web servers
-
-php is required, and your web server must be configured to serve .php. 
-
-php-mbstring (to support other character sets), sharutils (for uudecode) and 
-openssl are required. 
-phpmailer is required if email confirmation is to be used.
-These are the names for Debian packages. Other distributions should 
-also provide these in some way.
-
-If you get errors, check your log files to see what packages I've failed to mention.
-
-For FreeBSD:
-pkg install php72
-pkg install php72-extensions
-pkg install sharutils
-pkg install php72-pcntl
-pkg install php72-sockets
-pkg install php72-mbstring
-pkg install php72-openssl
-
-Installation: 
-
-1. Set up your webserver to handle php files
-
-2. Extract rslight into a temporary location
-
-3. Run the provided install script (debian-install.sh or freebsd-install.sh) as root
-and answer the prompts. This will configure locations, create directories and move files
-into place.
-
-4. Edit configuration file
-
-Load common/setup.php in your browser to configure your site. The admin password
-was displayed during install but can also be found in your config directory in
-admin.inc.php
-
-5. Add a cron job for the root user. Change the directories in this line to match your setup
-as shown in the installation script. Set the minutes as you wish. The paths must match your
-installation:
-
-*/5 * * * * cd /usr/local/www/html/spoolnews ; bash -lc "php /etc/rslight/scripts/cron.php"
-This will start the nntp server, then drop privileges to your web user and begin pulling
-articles from the remote server to create your spool. You won't see articles immediately
-in rslight, please wait 15-30 minutes to begin to see articles appear.
-
-If you have trouble, post to rocksolid.nodes.help and we'll try to help.
