Update instructions
Some remarks:
Instructions mainly refer to the installation of NX Web Companion
on Linux and Solaris SPARC platforms. However, instructions related to
the compressed TAR package can be extended to apply to the Windows and
Mac OS X platforms.
Instructions for Linux are intended
to be run from an xterm or similar and use the sudo utility. If you
don't have it installed, log on as superuser ("root") and run the
commands without sudo. They also refer to the 32 bit packages (i386),
but can be easily extended to the 64bit packages (x86_64).
To preserve settings specific for your environment, create a backup
copy of your DocRoot/plugin/nxapplet.html file beforehand. DocRoot
indicates the directory of the Web server out of which you will serve
your NX Web Companion.

$ sudo rpm -Uvh nxplugin-3.5.0-xy.i386.rpm
