|
| 3 | -* You should use a network installation for workstations and servers if at all possible. NFS, SMB and AFP all work for sharing a single installation among multiple machines. The decreased admin overhead, bandwidth and disk savings of sharing a single installation is a significant benefit. |

|
| 8 | -* All Linux machines need installations of a recent version (6.17+) of csh/tcsh. Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6 and other recent distributions usually have an up to date version. There are RPMs for Red Hat/CentOS/Scientific Linux 5.x in the software tree in the architecture specific directories: |

|
| 12 | - |
|
| 13 | -* SELinux must be disabled. |
|
| 14 | - |
|
| 15 | -* 64-bit machines need a number of 32-bit compatibility packages installed **even when using the 64-bit software branch**. This is due to a number of binary-only and legacy packages that are only available as 32-bit applications. Additional fonts for Tcl/Tk, Motif and Xview applications are also encouraged. |

| 17 | -Packages for RHEL 6, and 7 and compatible machines: |

| 24 | -* The same 32-bit requirement applies for 64-bit Debian and Ubuntu machines. This is supported via the [Multiarch](https///wiki.debian.org/Multiarch/HOWTO) system. You'll need at least the following packages to run most of the software. Please email us if you discover we have left some out. |

| 30 | -* Prior to OS X 10.8, the stock X11 has better compatibility than the Xquartz development version available from MacOSForge. With the OS X 10.8 release, X11 is no longer included by Apple, and you'll need to install the latest Xquartz version offered on the MacOSForge site to run X11-based applications. |
