## 3. Setting Up Your Server to Run Java CGI Programs (The Short Form)

- Get the Java CGI package from ftp://ftp.orbits.com/pub/software/java_cgi-0.5.tgz. (The version number may have changed.)
- Unpack the distribution with this command:

      gzip -dc java_cgi-0.5.tgz | tar -xvf -

  (If the version number has changed, use the instructions from within that distribution from this point on.)
- Edit the `Makefile` you will find in the newly created directory `java_cgi-0.5` as appropriate to your system.
- As root, run `make install`. This will compile the Java programs, apply your system-specific information and install the various files. If you want the HTML version of this documentation and an HTML test document, run `make all` instead.
- You should be ready to go.
