== Description ==
[http://www.osticket.com/ osTicket] is a widely-used open source support ticket system. It seamlessly integrates inquiries created via email and web-
based forms into a simple easy to use multi-user web interface. Easily manage, organize and archive all your support
requests and responses in one place while providing your clients with accountability and responsiveness they deserve.
osTicket is an attractive alternative to higher-cost and complex customer support systems; simple, lightweight, reliable,
open source, and easy to setup and use. The best part is, it's completely free.

==========================
At this point download the latest osTicket. Uncompress the files and upload files and directories in upload directory to a
directory of your choice on your server. For example /opt/osticket
osTicket installer needs to be able to write and modify ostconfig.php found in the upload's root directory. Change the
permission settings for the ostconfig.php file so that it is writable by the webserver.

the installer by simply browsing the osTicket URL http://www.yourdomain.com/support/setup/
http://www.yourdomain.com/support/setup/
== Finishing Up ==
