You can use a desktop tool that resides on your local client system to view the text configuration embedded in the system configuration file. You need to copy the system configuration file to your client system and run the desktop tool to view the uncompressed text configuration. This tool uses an executable to decompress the output of the show configuration command in the system configuration file. This executable is generated using the freely available GNU gcc compiler, which is platform-specific. The tool generates a temporary file in the directory where the Perl script is being run during the process of execution.
The desktop tool does not perform any CRC checking of the system configuration file before decompressing it. If the compressed data in the system configuration file is corrupt, a compression failure message is displayed. You must configure execute permisions for the files and executables that you install from the JUNOSe Software CD.
