need help installing the client

[herbiscus]

hi!
I'm new to linux. I am trying to install atitd in Fedora linux.
i have saved the eClient-linux-i686.run file to my desktop.
nothing i try seems to work. i tried the commands from another posting here it brings up the package manager, which looks in the online repositories for the file.
could someone please help? i have the newest Fedora distro.

Did you make sure set eClient-linux-i686.run as executable before attempting to run it? If not, running "chmod +x eClient-linux-i686.run" within the directory where you have the file will do so.

If that is not the problem, what exactly happens when you attempt to run the script?

also you could open up a shell window, change to the directory where you downloaded the file, and do a "sh ./eClient-linux-i686.run" which will run the installer for you and give further instructions.
