     42<title>Installation of <application>Nc<acronym>FTP</acronym></application></title>
     43
     44<para>There are two ways to build <application>Nc<acronym>FTP</acronym></application>.  The first
     45(and optimal) way builds most of the functionality as a shared library and
     46then builds and installs the program linked against this library.  The second
     47method simply links all of the functionality into the binary statically.  This
     48doesn't make the dynamic library available for linking by other
     49applications.  You need to choose which method best suits you.  Note
     50that the second method does <emphasis>not</emphasis> create an entirely
     51statically linked binary; only the <filename class="libraryfile">libncftp</filename> parts are
     52statically linked in, in this case. Be aware that building and using the shared
     53library is covered by the Clarified Artistic License; however, developing
     54applications that utilize the shared library is subject to a different license.
     55</para>
     56
     57<para>To install <application>Nc<acronym>FTP</acronym></application> using the first (and optimal)
     58method, run the following commands:</para>

     60<screen><userinput><command>./configure --prefix=/usr &amp;&amp;
     61make -C libncftp shared &amp;&amp;
     62make -C libncftp soinstall &amp;&amp;
     63make &amp;&amp;
     64make install</command></userinput></screen>
     65
     66<para>To install <application>Nc<acronym>FTP</acronym></application> using the second method (with
     67the <filename class="libraryfile">libncftp</filename> functionality linked in statically) run the
     68following commands:</para>
     69
     70<screen><userinput><command>./configure --prefix=/usr &amp;&amp;

     81These commands make and install the dynamic library <filename

     83against when compiling the main program.</para>

     97<para>Most <application>Nc<acronym>FTP</acronym></application> configuration is done while in the
     98program, and the configuration files are dealt with automatically.  One
     99exception to this is <filename>~/.ncftp/prefs_v3</filename>.  There are various
     100options to alter in there, including:</para>
     101
     102<para><screen><userinput>yes-i-know-about-NcFTPd=yes</userinput></screen>
     103This disables the splash screen advertising the
