After Installing Lyris on Unix

Once you have completed the "install_lyris" installation program, you will be displayed a page such as the one below. This page gives you basic startup directions for configuring your Lyris List Manager now that it is installed.

Lyris List Manager has now been installed on your system!

You can now run Lyris List Manager in the foreground with the command:
"/opt/lyrrun/bin/lyris start"

or run Lyris List Manager in the background with the command:
"/opt/lyrrun/bin/lyris -bd"

We recommend that you first run Lyris List Manager in the foreground, so that you see any
warning messages. If you encounter a conflict on port 25 with Sendmail,
please see the README file.

To create your first mailing list, you can point your web browser at:

http://thismachine/cgi-bin/lyris.pl

When prompted for a user name and password, you should give the name
"admin" and the password "lyris"

A log of the actions taken by this installation program has been saved
to /opt/lyrrun/install.log

A Lyris List Manager uninstall script has been created for you at:
/opt/lyrrun/uninstall_lyris_now

Lyris List Manager setup has completed. Please press return to exit.
