* Edit the file `twiki/bin/wikicfg.pm` and set the variables at the beginning of the file to your needs.
* Make sure RCS is installed. Set `$rcsDir` in `twiki/bin/wikicfg.pm` to mach the location of your RCS binaries.
* Point your browser at <http://your.domain.com/twiki/bin/view> and start TWiki-ing away!
+* Using your browser, edit the [[TWikiPreferences]] topic in the TWiki.%TWIKIWEB% web to set the WIKIWEBMASTER email address, the WEBCOPYRIGHT message and other preferences.
* Note in case the cgi scripts must have a file extension like `.pl` or `.cgi`:
* Add the extension to all the scripts (except for the `.pm` ones) in `twiki/bin`
* Edit `wikicfg.pm` and set the file extension in the `$scriptSuffix` variable.
* If you use `.htaccess`, edit the file and add the file extension to `edit`, `view`, `preview`, etc.
-* Note in case the cgi scripts are **_not_** running as user `nobody`: The `*,v` RCS repository files delivered with the installation package are locked by user `nobody` . In case the user is different (e.g. `www-data` ), it is not possible to check in files, this has the effect that the topic version number does not increase when saving a topic. In this case you need to unlock all repository files and lock them as user `www-data` (check the rcs man pages), or simply delete all the repository files. A simple way to switch the locker of the RCS files is to use sed: <br />`for f in *,v; do sed 's/nobody/www-data/' $f > x; mv x $f; done`

* Security issue: Directories `twiki/data` , `twiki/templates` and all its subdirectories should be set so that they are **not** visible as a URL. (Alternatively, move the directries to a place where they are not visible, and change the variables in `twiki/bin/wikicfg.pm` accordingly)
-* Enable email notification of topic changes, [Notification of Changes](TWikiDocumentation#notification) has more.
+* Enable email notification of topic changes, [Notification of Changes](TWikiDocumentation#notification) has more. Using your browser, edit also the [[WebNotify]] topic in all webs and set the users you want to notify.
* Add the [TWiki:Main.PoweredByTWikiLogo](http://TWiki.org/cgi-bin/view/Main/PoweredByTWikiLogo) to your %MAINWEB%.WebHome topic.
* Optional: You can add new rendering rules or new %VARIABLES%. To insure an easy upgrade of TWiki it is recommended to do this customization in `twiki/bin/wikicfg.pm` , not `twiki/bin/wiki.pm` .
