Installing the Client Using CONSOLE Mode

If you do not have a GUI environment, or if you prefer a console-like installation, you can install
Transporter in console mode.

From a Linux or HP-UX shell, use this command:

java -jar nvt_java_client_v.v.v.jar -console

v.v.v

indicates the major version, minor version, and update number. For example, 2.4.0

corresponds to the initial release of version 2.4.

For Windows, you can install Transporter in console mode by typing the same command
at the

Command prompt on a Windows system (page 62)

.

NOTE:

You must ensure that your PATH and Java environment are set up correctly,

including the minimum required JVM. For more information, see

“Required Environment

Settings For Client Installation” (page 17)
