*** Compiling and Installing totd ***

totd is known to compile and run on FreeBSD, NetBSD, and Darwin. It is
expected to compile and run on any OS with a Kame derived IPv6 stack.
In addition, totd (starting with version 1.3) is known to run on several
Linux-based systems and has been reported to compile and run on Solaris 8.

If compilation on your system fails you can send me problem reports,
which I may process or maybe not.

The best way to compile and install totd is to:

1. run ./configure
   configure takes --prefix <dir> as option to specify installation directory
2. make depend && make && make install

It is possible to add or remove compiling in some features. See also
./configure --help for your options:

   --enable-ip6   Enables support for IPv6 transport (default: yes)
   --enable-ip4   Enables support for IPv4 transport (default: yes)
   --enable-stf   Enables support for 6to4 (stf) reverse lookup (default: no)
   --enable-scoped-rewrite Enables support for scoped address rewriting (default: yes)
   --enable-http-server    Enables support for a builtin (SWILL) web-server (default: no)

The last option in the list makes that a simple web server is compiled
into totd can accept http requests for adding and removing prefixes
from a running totd. This is most useful in more complicated network
settings where multiple IPv4/IPv6 translators are deployed and 
automatic failover between them is needed. This functionality is
provided by SWILL which is shipped with totd in its original
form. Note that the SWILL library is covered by the GNU LESSER GENERAL
PUBLIC LICENSE. See for more info on this SWILL-0.1/COPYING. 

Requesting index.html gives a HTML page with the current state and
statistics of totd. You can also use it to dynamically update the
prefixes used by totd. This is useful for more complicated network
setups that employ multiple translation devices or mechanisms at the
same time or have failover between primary and secondary devices, for
example. Prefixes are added and removed by requesting add_prefix.html
and del_prefix.html combined with the variable `prefix' set to the
prefix in question. Example URL for adding a prefix:

    http://localhost:6464/add_prefix?prefix=2001:xxxx:xxxx:xxxx::

You can use a tool like curl (http://curl.haxx.se) to automatically,
from a remote (management) machine, add and delete prefixes to a 
running totd this way.

Have fun,
