Installation Steps

Download the 4PSA DNS Manager ISO image from http://download1.4psa.com/dnsmanager/dnsmanager.iso. The 4PSA DNS Manager ISO image is based on CentOS 5.4 operating system.
Burn the ISO image on a CD using your favorite burner software.
Insert the CD in your computer. It is STRONGLY recommended to use a dedicated computer for this purpose, even if you install 4PSA DNS Manager only for a demo. The computer hard drive might be totally repartitioned during the installation (based on your selection).
Boot from the 4PSA DNS Manager CD.
Press <ENTER> when the boot prompt appears if you want to manually partition your hard drive or write autopartition and press <ENTER> if you want the installer to automatically partition your hard drive (WARNING: THIS WILL ERASE YOUR HARD DRIVE).
Follow the installer instructions and set the timezone and root password.
The installer will reboot the system and the installed DNS Manager distribution will boot. You will be asked to setup the IP address, network mask and network gateway. Make sure that you enter correct settings, otherwise you will not be able to access the server.
Go to another computer and point your browser to:

https://<server_ip>:8550
