cacti is now installed.

To get cacti up and running asap, you have to complete these steps:

- Install & Configure MySQL database server.

- Add a cacti database and cactiuser user to MySQL and create the cacti
  database layout (${CACTIDIR}/cacti.sql) to MySQL:

	mysql> CREATE DATABASE cacti;
	mysql> GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON cacti.* TO 'cactiuser'@'localhost'
	    -> IDENTIFIED BY 'cactiuser';
        mysql> FLUSH PRIVILEGES;
        mysql> USE cacti;
        mysql> SOURCE ${CACTIDIR}/cacti.sql;

- Install & Configure an Apache webserver.

- If you have not already done so, add these lines to enable php extensions
  required by cacti in ${PKG_SYSCONFBASE}/etc/php.ini

	extension=mysql.so
	extension=snmp.so
	extension=sockets.so

- Append this to Apache webserver's "httpd.conf" and restart the server.

	Include etc/httpd/httpd-cacti.conf

- Add the following lines to ${CACTI_USER}'s crontab

# Invoke poller.php to collect SNMP statistics.
*/5 * * * *	${PREFIX}/bin/cacti-poller

Please read the included README (${CACTIDIR}/docs/README) file,
for more information about configuring and starting cacti.
