Keith, The instructions I followed are here: http://www3.telus.net/public/robark/Fl_TeacherTool/installation.html when I installed 0.62. Just make sure you install all the required libraries via yum (or whatever package manager you use) which will resolve dependencies. I actually did not need to worry about the instructions for setting vncts but you might.
