Installation

Installing RIPS is very simple, especially when you already have a web server installed which is able to parse PHP files. To install RIPS, you will have to do the following:

1. Install a web server with PHP. For a Windows Machine you could easily install the latest version of XAMPP. Simply download the executable and follow the on-screen instructions.
2. Download RIPS, extract it (for example using WinRAR) and copy the files to the document root of your web server. Rename the main directory to rips. For XAMPP on windows the default document root directory is C:\xampp\htdocs\ (so put the RIPS files in C:\xampp\htdocs\rips\).
3. Start your web server, if not running already. For XAMPP on windows you can do this by running the xampp_start.exe executable (C:\xampp\xampp_start.exe).
4. Open your browser and go to http://localhost/rips/.
5. Follow the on-screen instructions to start scanning.
