1. Introduction

       NAREGI middleware was developed by the National Research Grid Initiative 
       (usually referred to as NAREGI).  For details about NAREGI middleware, 
       refer to http://www.naregi.org/.


2. Installation Procedure

       NAREGI middleware is installed using the rpm packages (except some 
       components). First, the user runs an installation program on one 
       computing node; then, the installation program accesses our download
       server to download the program packages and installs the packages to 
       other computing nodes. For details of the installation procedure,
       refer to NAREGI Middleware Installation Guide.

       Before the installation using the rpm package, the user needs to make 
       preparations such as definition of server configuration. For details of
       the procedure, refer to "2.1 Preparations and Points to be Checked" 
       in the NAREGI Middleware Installation Guide.
