+echo "This script will:
+1) Install modules needed to run web2py on Fedora and CentOS/RHEL
+2) Install Python 2.6 to /opt and recompile wsgi if not provided
+2) Install web2py in /opt/web-apps/
+3) Configure SELinux and iptables
+5) Create a self signed ssl certificate
+6) Setup web2py with mod_wsgi
+7) Create virtualhost entries so that web2py responds for '/'
+8) Restart Apache.
+
+You should probably read this script before running it.
+
+Although SELinux permissions changes have been made,
+further SELinux changes will be required for your personal
+apps. (There may also be additional changes required for the
+bundled apps.)  As a last resort, SELinux can be disabled.
+
+A simple iptables configuration has been applied.  You may
+want to review it to verify that it meets your needs.
+
+Finally, if you require a proxy to access the Internet, please
+set up your machine to do so before running this script.
