This chapter describes how to obtain and compile FunnelWeb from scratch and set up for further development. In order to compile FunnelWeb, you will need:

- FTP access to the internet OR a FunnelWeb source distribution kit on disk.
- A computer running one of the FunnelWeb-supported operating systems OR lots of extra time to port FunnelWeb to a new platform.
- About five megabytes of free disk space.
- A C compiler.
- An acquaintance with the C programming language and the ability to compile and link C programs on your machine.
- Elementary systems programming knowledege for your machine.
- About an hour.

You will not need any sort of system privileges to install FunnelWeb, unless you want the FunnelWeb command `fw` to be automatically available to everyone on your machine as well as yourself.
