Starting Card Processor

To start the card processor, you must already have configured the security files and the parameters used by the card processor. If you have not done so, perform the necessary configuration first.

Next, open a terminal window alongside Netscape. Change your directory to /bin and run the ccpd program.

The program first asks you to type in some random keystrokes to provide enough randomness to be used during secure communications with the bank card gateway. The program then prompts you to type in the password to decrypt the key pair file.

After the card processor has been started, you can test the network connection between the card processor and the bank card acquirer.
