# Creating your own copy of SARA

There are only two steps to follow; from your Un*x or coLinux shell prompt:

1. Type ./configure in the main SARA directory (not required for coSARA).
2. Then type make (not required for coSARA)
3. Then type make install (not required for coSARA)
4. Type cd /usr/local/sara
5. Type perl reconfig
6. Type ./sara and you are on your way

That should be all that is needed. If you have any problems (remember, SARA is currently only fully supported on SunOS 4.x, SunOS 5.x, IRIX 5.x, IRIX 6.x, Linux x.x, MAC OS/X, and the ARC distributed coLinux filesystem. If you are having trouble with coSARA, check out the README. Non coSARA users should read the full documentation on configuration and installation.

You should now go to Scanning your host or networks to see how to start scanning hosts using SARA.
