	      mv /tmp/oss645a /tmp/VOL.000.000

	2. Run the Software Manager with the command:

	      # scoadmin software

	   or double-click on the Software Manager icon in the
	   desktop.

	3. Pull down the "Software" menu and select "Install New".

	4. When prompted for the host from which to install, choose
	   the local machine and then "Continue".

	5. In the "Select Media" menu, pull down the "Media Device"
	   menu.  Select "Media Images", then choose "Continue".

	6. When prompted for the "Image Directory", enter "/tmp" (or
	   the directory where you placed the VOL file in step 1) and
	   choose "OK".

	7. When prompted to select software to install, make sure that
	   the "OSS645A: Audit Subsystem Security Supplement" entry is
	   highlighted.  Choose "Install".
