+ IMPORTANT CHANGE
+-----------------
+
+IMPORTANT! READ! Configuration Change as of 03/04/02: The default
+listening port is now 8118 due to conflicts with port 8000 assignment.
+You will need to change your browser if upgrading!!! And maybe
+firewall, etc.

INSTALL
--------
Redhat and SuSE src and binary RPMs can be built with 'make
redhat-dist' or 'make suse-dist' (run ./configure first) from unpacked
-sources. BSD will (probably?) require gmake (from http://gnu.org). See the
-user-manual for OS/2 build instructions.

Junkbuster is also available via anonymous CVS:
cvs -d:pserver:anonymous@cvs.ijbswa.sourceforge.net:/cvsroot/ijbswa login
cvs -z3 -d:pserver:anonymous@cvs.ijbswa.sourceforge.net:/cvsroot/ijbswa co current
-This will create a directory named 'current'. Then, 'cd current', and then
-build as above.

DOCUMENTATION
--------------
-The best source of information on the current development version, is
-either comments in the source code, or the included configuration
-files, which are all well commented. These are 'config',
-'actionsfile', and 're_filterfile' in the toplevel source directory.
+There is a growing amount of documentation in the 'doc' subdirectory,
+but it is not finished at this point. In particular, see the
