 0) Prerequisite  
   
    Follow README.md under https://github.com/leafok88/leafok_bbs to initialize the database structure shared by both web version and telnet version. It is highly recommended to finish the configuration steps of web version first and make sure those features could work properly.  
   
 1) Extract the source files from a tarball or export from GitHub    
    Run the following command to set up the autoconf/automake environment,    
    sh ./autogen.sh    
    and fix any error if exists.  
   
 2) Compile source files    
    ./configure --prefix=/usr/local/lbbs    
    make  
   
 3) Create user and group    
    sudo useradd bbs  
   
 4) Install binary files and data files    
    sudo make install  
   
 5) Modify following configuration files    
    Default configuration files is saved as *.default, you should rename them first.    
    /usr/local/lbbs/conf/bbsd.conf    
    /usr/local/lbbs/utils/conf/db_conn.inc.php  
   
 6) Generate menu configuration file with section data by running the script    
    sudo -u bbs php /usr/local/lbbs/utils/bin/gen_section_menu.php  
   
 7) Create or copy SSH2 RSA certificate into /usr/local/lbbs/conf    
    ssh-keygen -t rsa -C "Your Server Name" -f ssh_host_rsa_key  
   
 8) Startup    
    sudo /usr/local/lbbs/bin/bbsd  
   
 9) Set up systemd    
    Create your own /usr/lib/systemd/system/lbbs.service from the sample at conf/lbbs.service.default, and make any change if necessary. Please note that the startup argument "-f" with bbsd should be used in systemd notify mode.    
    Run the following bash command to startup the service:    
    sudo systemctl daemon-reload    
    sudo systemctl start lbbs
