How I must install Baifox?

Basically, you should read the INSTALL instruccions, compile PHP in CGI mode with te INSTALL parameters, and untar the file in /usr/local/baifox I recommend it.

How can I access to the panel?

First, init the nanowebserver "/usr/local/baifox/nanowebserver/bin/nanoctl start" or create and init file fore example in /etc/init.d/ for debian. And then use the 7777 PORT in your webbrowser. http://localhost:7777

When I access to control panel the navigator ask me to SAVE PHP, instead execute it!!'''

Check first if PHP is COMPILED with pcntl module, there is'nt a module package as .deb in debian packages with php-pcntl module, please compile php. And then check that php-cgi client is in the correct path in /usr/local/baifox/nanowebserver/etc/nanoweb.conf file, in this line: 

ParseExt = php CGI /usr/local/bin/php-cgi

In previous version before php 5.2.3 it works as /usr/local/bin/php now only works as /usr/local/bin/php-cgi.

I don't like the 7777 port, can I change it?

Sure, simply, /usr/local/baifox/nanowebserver/etc/nanoweb.conf 

ListenPort = 7777

modify it.

What is the login name to access?

By defaull login user: admin and password user: admin.

Is compatible with PHP4 and PHP5?

Yeah, sure, it was developed under PHP5 and actually is working in PHP4 in some servers.

What software do I need to run baifox?

Only PHP, baifox save all data in XML format and run the server and the panel in php.

Where I can change the paths and configuration?

In /usr/local/baifox/panel/admin_panel/config/main_config.php file are all variables.

Works with apache 2?

Yes.

Why pureftpd and not proftpd?

Err, basically proftpd is more insecure, and when I used it some years ago, it hans't mysql directly support, with some plugins it works, but I probe it with 1000 users, and FTP nevermore get alive. With pureftpd in the same server all works fine. Pureftpd is really fast and secure, and has a lot of features.

¿Baifox could be excuted with other web server instead NANOWEBSERVER?

Yes. It's perfectly posible, while web server support php. All you need to make is point to /usr/local/baifox/panel DIR.
