- Quick Checklist:
- Download to your UNIX machine the iop-access.pl and
iop-access.conf files.
- Install on your system the latest version of these PERL modules:
Layered CGI::* modules source and
LWP source
- Set the configuration of iop-access.pl in two places:
the location of the iop-access.conf file and the IP
address restrictions. These two options are found near the top
of the PERL program.
- Modify the configuration file for the site-specific information
and the list of journals for which you have a subscription. Follow
the comments in the configuration file.
- Install the iop-access.pl and iop-access.conf files
in the cgi-bin directory of your UNIX HTTPD server or other
appropriate location.
- URLs to the IOP journals take the form: http://www.univ.edu/cgi-bin/iop-access.pl/journal-abrev/ (where journal-abrev is the journal abreviation found in the configuration file).
