+    | IMPORTANT!  This README file explains how the lsof tar archive   |
+    | is assembled -- it's a "wrapper" tar archive.  Please read the   |
+    | explanation of its naming and construction, immediately          |
+    | following the initial list of supported dialects.                |

+
+Lsof version 4 lists open files for running UNIX processes.  It is a
+descendent of ofiles, fstat, and lsof versions 1, 2, and 3.  It has
+been tested recently on these UNIX dialects.
+
+	AIX 5.3
+	Apple Darwin 9 (Mac OS X 10.5)
+	FreeBSD 4.9 for x86-based systems
+	FreeBSD 7.[012], 8.0 and 9.0 for AMD64-based systems
+	Linux 2.1.72 and above for x86-based systems
+	Solaris 9, 10 and 11
+
+Lsof 4 may work on other versions of these dialects, but hasn't been
+tested there recently.  Lsof versions 2 and 3 are still available and
+may provide older dialect version support.  See the notes on them in
+this file.
+
+The pub/tools/unix/lsof/contrib directory on lsof.itap.purdue.edu also
+contains information on other ports.
+
+Version 4 of lsof is distributed as bzip2'd, gzip'd and compressed tar
+archives in the files:
+
+    ftp://lsof.itap.purdue.edu/pub/tools/unix/lsof/lsof.tar.bz2
+  and
+    ftp://lsof.itap.purdue.edu/pub/tools/unix/lsof/lsof.tar.gz
+  and
+    ftp://lsof.itap.purdue.edu/pub/tools/unix/lsof/lsof.tar.Z
+
+These files are links to the current distribution, whose name includes
+the revision number:
+
+    ftp://lsof.itap.purdue.edu/pub/tools/unix/lsof_<rev>.tar.bz2
+  and
+    ftp://lsof.itap.purdue.edu/pub/tools/unix/lsof_<rev>.tar.gz
+  and
+    ftp://lsof.itap.purdue.edu/pub/tools/unix/lsof_<rev>.tar.Z
+
+<rev> is the revision number -- e.g., 4.83.  These archives are called
+wrappers, because the lsof source tar archive, its GPG certificate
+(lsof_<rev>_src.tar.sig), and some documentation files are wrapped
+together inside them.  (The GPG certificate authenticates the source
+tar archive.)  A tar archive with: a ``.bz2'' suffix has been
+compressed with bzip2; ``.gz'', with gzip; and ``.Z'', with compress.
+
+When the wrapper tar is gunzip'd or uncompressed, and its tar archive
+contents are extracted, an lsof_4.83 subdirectory is created in the
+directory where the extraction was performed.  The lsof_4.83
+subdirectory contains these files:
+
+	00.README.FIRST		contains introductory distribution
+				information.
+
+	README.lsof_4.83	contains instructions for the
+				security-conscious on how to be
+				sure that no one has tampered with
+				the distribution.
+
+	RELEASE_SUMMARY_4.83	is this file.
+
+	lsof_4.83_src.tar       is a tar archive, containing the
+				lsof sources.  When extracted with
+				tar it creates a subdirectory named
+				lsof_4.83_src in the directory
+				where the extraction was performed.
+				The lsof source files will be found
+				in lsof_4.83_src.
+
+	lsof_4.83_src.tar.sig   is a GPG certificate, authenticating
+				the lsof_4.83_src.tar archive.  See the
+				README.lsof_4.83 file for more
+				information on GPG authentication of
+				lsof_4.83_src.tar.
+
+If you've obtained this file and an lsof distribution from a mirror
+site, please be aware that THE LATEST VERSION OF LSOF IS AVAILABLE VIA
+ANONYMOUS FTP FROM LSOF.ITAP.PURDUE.EDU IN THE PUB/TOOLS/UNIX/LSOF
+DIRECTORY.
+
+Patches to lsof distributions may be found in the patches/ sub-
+directory where you found lsof.tar.bz2, lsof.tar.gz or lsof.tar.Z.
+If there are any patches to the current distribution, they will be
+found in the patches/4.83/ branch.
+
+(If you need a copy of gunzip, look for it at prep.ai.mit.edu in
+pub/gnu/gzip*.)
+
+* The March 25, 2009 revision (4.82): corrects an over-zealous test that
+  causes lsof to produce no ouput when the HASSECURITY and HASNOSOCKSECURITTY
+  have been specified at lsof build time; corrects Solaris 10 and above
+  <sys/utsname.h> include/compilation problem and eliminates other Solaris
+  10 compilation warnings; supports FreeBSD 7.1-PRELEASE; incorporates
+  changes to Darwin lsof, supplied by Apple; enables FreeBSD use of the
+  ${MAKE} variable; improves Solaris VxFS library location test; updates
+  Solaris 10 ZFS support to ZFS pool version 10; updates interpretation of
+  Solaris 10 device numbers; adds rudimentary Solaris 10 sharedfs support;
+  fixes a bug in Solaris 10 zone handling; adapts to changes in FreeBSD
+  8.0-CURRENT device number computation; selects correct Solaris VxFS library
+  when configuring for gcc; adapts to loss of FreeBSD KAME IPv6 accommodations;
+  adapts to FreeBSD 7.2.
+
+* The January 18, 2010 revision (4.83): converts Solaris 10 and above ZFS
+  support to use the CTF library, libctf; fixes a typo with the
+  LINUX_HASSELUNIX Configure variable; accepts LSOF_RANLIB from the
+  environment; enables Solaris 10 compilation after a recent PC file system
+  patch; ported to Solaris 11; adjusts to disappearance of <nfs/rpcv2.h> from
+  FreeBSD 8.0-BETA; improves Solaris node type lookup; supports FreeBSD
+  9.0-CURRENT; extends a FreeBSD 9 fix to FreeBSD 6 and above; added Linux
+  test for __UCLIBC__.
+
+
+Read the 00.README.FIRST in the lsof distribution first.
+
+Read the 00DIST distribution file for more details on feature additions
+and bug fixes.
+
+The 00README distribution file has build instructions, dialect
+descriptions, special feature discussions, and installation hints.
+
+The 00FAQ file contains a list of frequently asked questions and their
+answers.
+
+The 00DCACHE file explains device cache file path formation.
+
+The 00PORTING file contains information on porting lsof to other UNIX
+dialects.
+
+The 00QUICKSTART file gives a quick introduction to using lsof.
+
+The distribution files lsof.8 (nroff source) and lsof.man (nroff
+formatted output) contain the manual page for lsof; it is the only
+other documentation besides the source code (it's included).
+
+
+Version 4 Binaries
+==================
+
+Version 4 binaries for some revisions, dialects, and platforms may be
+found in pub/tools/unix/lsof/binaries.  Check the README files for
+exact descriptions.  Check the dialect-specific Makefiles for
+installation instructions.  CHECKSUMS and GPG certificates are provided
+for authentication.
+
+Please think very carefully before you decide to use a pre-built binary
+instead of making your own from the sources.  Here are some points to
+consider:
+
+1. Lsof must run setgid or setuid.  Are you willing to trust that
+   power to a binary you didn't construct yourself?
+
+2. Lsof binaries may be generated on a system whose configuration
+   header files differ from yours.  Under Digital UNIX (DEC OSF/1), for
+   example, lsof includes header files from the machine's configuration
+   directory, /sys/<name>.  Are you willing to gamble that your
+   configuration directory's header files match the ones used to
+   compile lsof?
+
+3. Lsof is often configured with specific options that are determined
+   from the configuration of the system on which it is configured --
+   e.g., Solaris patch level, dynamic loader libraries, etc.  Are you
+   sure that the lsof binary you retrieve will have been configured for
+   your system? If you get a binary that is misconfigured for you, it
+   may not work at all.
+
+If you haven't already guessed, I believe firmly that you should
+retrieve sources and build your own binary.  If you still want to use
+the distribution binaries, please authenticate what you retrieved with
+the GPG certificates; please compare checksums, too.
+
+
+Version 4 Checksums
+===================
+
+Security checksums -- both MD5 and sum(1) -- for revisions of lsof
+version 4 are contained in the README.lsof_<rev> files in the wrapper
+tar archives of pub/tools/unix/lsof.
+
+The CHECKSUMS file, found with the distribution archives, contains
+information on validating the archives with external MD5 checksums and
+external GPG certificates.
+
+
+GPG Certificates
+================
+
+The lsof wrapper tar archive includes a GPG certificate file in its
+contained lsof_4.71_src.tar.sig file.
+
+Binary files have detached GPG certificates that may be found in their
+directories with ".sig" extensions.
+
+The certificates are signed with my GPG public key, which may be found
+in the file:
+
+    ftp://lsof.itap.purdue.edu/pub/tools/unix/lsof/Victor_A_Abell.gpg
+
+My key may also be available at some public key servers,
+
+There is also authentication information in the CHECKSUMS file (a link
+to CHECKSUMS_<rev>), found with the lsof distribution files.  CHECKSUMS
+contains external MD5 checksums for the distribution files and
+information on using the external GPG certificates, found with the lsof
+distribution files.
+
+
+Old Dialect Support
+===================
+
+Remnants of source code and binaries for dialects for which lsof once
+provided support may be obtained by request.  Send the request to
+abe@purdue.edu.
+
+Dialects no longer supported include:
+
+	CDC EP/IX
+	MIPS RISC/os
+	Motorola V/88
+	Pyramid DC/OSx
+	Pyramid Reliant UNIX
+	Sequent DYNIX
+	SGI IRIX
+	SunOS 4.1.x
+	Ultrix
+
+Generally I drop support for a dialect when I no longer have access to
+a test system.
+
+
+Lsof Version 2
+==============
+
+The version 3 predecessor, revision 36 of version 2, is also available
+upon request.  Send the request to abe@purdue.edu.
+
+I recommend you avoid lsof version 2.  It's out of date and I no
+longer provide support for it.  (Versions 3 and 4 support more
+dialects, and have many enhancements, bug fixes, and improvements.)
+Version 2 was tested on the following UNIX dialects:
+
+	AIX 3.2.[1234] for the IBM RISC/System 6000
+	DEC OSF/1 1.[23] and 2.0 for the DEC Alpha
+	EP/IX 1.4.3 and 2.1.1 for the CDC 4680
+	ETAV 1.17 for the ETA-10P*
+	FreeBSD 1.0e for x86-based systems
+	HP-UX [789].x for HP systems
+	IRIX 4.0.5 and 5.1.1 for SGI systems
+	NEXTSTEP 2.1, 3.0, 3.1 for NeXT systems
+	Sequent Dynix 3.0.12 for Sequent Symmetry systems
+	SunOS 4.1.[123] for Sun 3 and 4 systems
+	SunOS 5.[13] (Solaris 2.[13]) for Sun 4 systems
+	Ultrix 2.2 and 4.2 for DEC systems
+
+(If you need a copy of gunzip, look for it at prep.ai.mit.edu in
+pub/gnu.)
+
+
+Version 2 Checksums
+===================
+
+MD5:
+	(OLD/lsof236tar.gz) = f8a1ab3971ea2f6a3ea16752f84409e8
+
+sum(1):
+	39996   106 OLD/lsof236tar.gz
+
+The file OLD/lsof236tar.gz.asc is a detached PGP certificate that may
+be used to authenticate OLD/lsof236tar.gz with my PGP public key.  You
+may find my PGP public key at:
+
+  ftp://lsof.itap.purdue.edu/pub/tools/unix/lsof/OLD/Victor_A_Abell.pgp
+    
+
+Lsof Version 3
+==============
+
+The last revision of lsof version 3, 3.88, may obtained by request.
+Send the request to abe@purdue.edu.
+
+I recommend version 4 over version 3.  It is the version I actively
+support.
