3. Requirements:
The software packages for Linux were compiled on
We know that you will find issues with Debian8 and latest CentOS7 releases.
At the moment we do not plan to work on that, the issues are known for a lot of other software.
Please use the stable version listed above, we cannot support others.
The DMR-Master might also run on older releases of the Linux distributions.
Please note:
The DMR+MBridge and the IPSC-Server both require libssl1.0.0 which is not available for Debian6 and before.
For this 2 software packages Debian7 is required!
Ubuntu users need to make sure that they have the correct libssl installed, it is part of the openssl packages.
The different package version libssl0.9.8 and libssl1.0.0 are not compatible, the higher is not the update of the lower version
number!
Please check Google for more details.

CentOS:
Step 1: Adding the DMRplus repository server
At first you have to run the following command on your repeater system once:
curl http://repo1.ham-digital.net/dmr-plus/centos5/dmrplus.repo -o /etc/yum.repos.d/dmrplus.repo
Take care that you copy and execute the complete line on your system!
This is the same path for CentOS5 (32bit only) and CentOS6 (64bit only).
This command copies a configuration file with information about the DMRplus repository servers to your yum repos directory.
You will not need to execute this command again later for any update or if you wish to install any other of the DMRplus software packages.
The IPSC-Server:
# sudo yum install ipscserver
OR the DMR+MBridge:

Note that these scripts create a crontab entry which works as a watchdog and makes sure that the software is restarted
whenever it should break for any reason.
When started by start-script you MUST stop it by the stop-script to de-activate the watchdog, otherwise it will always
come up in the background again.
When started by the standard start script the software runs invisible as daemon in the background.
For tests you may also use the run.sh scripts which are located in the installation directories to start the server
software and keep it alive. This will show useful console output.
When you access your system from remote you need to run it in a screen, otherwise it will end when you close the
session!
