Installation instructions

README.md - Installation

Quickstart

  • Download (either .zip or tar.gz)
  • extract the archive
  • run the file ./place_files_onto_system.sh as root to install Adsorber
  • run adsorber setup

Note for updaters:

  • Due to changes how we handle the hosts file you'll need to remove/disable Adsorber prior upgrading to this version.
    This can be done with either running adsorber disable or ./remove_files_from_system.sh
  • All your config files will be overwritten by ./place_files_onto_system.sh.
    If you want to keep them, take a copy and restore them afterwards.
    In most cases the config can be found at /usr/local/etc/adsorber/

Changes

  • Adsorber will now manipulate the hosts file inline for increased compatibility, instead of completely overwriting it (see #14 for the discussion). Thanks to @eksperimental
    Therefore you can now directly edit your /etc/hosts without the need to worry that they will be wiped when Adsorber runs.
  • /etc/hosts.original will not be read by Adsorber anymore, write your changes directly to the /etc/hosts
  • Some minor internal improvements (e.g syntax, etc)
