[daip] installation problems

Hi
Sorry to have to ask you.... I successfully installed binary version of
AIPS on linux/core4 earlier this year (in Socorro, with local help, thanks);
but now have problems attempting a binary installation of MACINT on my new
MacBook Pro (still getting used to the Mac system....). The attempted
installation was done on my laptop plugged into a cable at my office (CfA).
I am hoping that you can quickly spot all the things i have done wrong by
scanning my notes file, and a copy of .aipsrc generated by the wizard.
Obviously I have some problems with the name of my laptop (slarti), and I
should have stuck with 'LOCALHOST'. however, i think my problems are more
far reaching. Also, I don't really have any printers installed yet. Probably
should have done that, but i haven't.
Unfortunately I am off to Maine tomorrow (Monday), and will then have only
a dial-up connection. worse still, the new Mac has no modem, so to get on
the web, I have to go to the library in the next town.... although I will
read email via my wife's laptop.
Many thanks, Dan harris at cfa.harvard.edu

we have the wizard script, but can't figure out how/when to get the binaries.
we ran the script.... printers are some sort of things found locally at office.
seems to have grabbed the binaries after answering all screen queries.
ended with this:

AipsWiz:
The AIPS Midnight Job is a way to keep your AIPS
AipsWiz: installation up to date. It is secure, relatively
AipsWiz: easy, and can be done on demand or in a cron job
AipsWiz: (i.e. periodically, daily or weekly or whenever).
AipsWiz: It does require that you have the cvs software
AipsWiz: package installed on your system.
AipsWiz: This script will set up the infrastructure for you
AipsWiz: to be *able* to run the Midnight Job (MNJ), but you
AipsWiz: have the power to make it run or not.
AipsWiz: About to run 'MAKE.BMNJ '...
AipsWiz: This will generate a fair bit of output.
sh: line 1: /soft/aips/31DEC06/UNKNOWN/SYSTEM/CDVER.SH: No such file or directory
AipsWiz: Not good; no /soft/aips/31DEC06/MACINT/SYSTEM/SLARTI/UPDCONFIG found; did MAKE.BMNJ fail?
AipsWiz: You should investigate this.
AipsWiz: ==> Press <ENTER> to acknowledge::
AipsWiz: =====> Generate system files via FILAIP/POPSGN...
AipsWiz: This will generate some output, including a copyright (left)
AipsWiz: statement and some prompts, but should end with a 'Done!' if
AipsWiz: everything worked...
AipsWiz: About to run FILAIP. If this is a re-installation, you
AipsWiz: will be prompted for an AIPS Manager password. The
AipsWiz: default password is AMANAGER
Cannot find /soft/aips/31DEC06/UNKNOWN/LOAD/FILAIP.EXE
AipsWiz: Error: FILAIP did not work, or there's a missing file!
AipsWiz: Error: This may mean that FILAIP did not work (it should have
AipsWiz: Error: created it and many other files in that area).
AipsWiz: Error: You can try running it by hand after (a) dotting the
AipsWiz: Error: LOGIN.SH file or sourcing the LOGIN.CSH file; and
AipsWiz: Error: (b) Typing 'RUN FILAIP'. You will then be asked for
AipsWiz: Error: two parameters. Use
8 2
AipsWiz: Error: as the standard values.
AipsWiz: Error: You will also have to RUN POPSGN if that works;
AipsWiz: Error: Feed it
0 POPSDAT TST
AipsWiz: Error: when it asks for Idebug, etc. and press RETURN when
AipsWiz: Error: you see the '>' prompt.
AipsWiz: Install Wizard stopping. Current settings saved in ~/.AIPSRC
AipsWiz: Abandoning ship! Goodbye.

defined alias in my .cshrc
alias aip "source /soft/aips/LOGIN.CSH; /soft/aips/START_AIPS tpok"
In the wizard, when defining data areas, I used /soft/aips/DATA/SLARTI_1 (_2, _3, ETC)
In order to get into aips at all, I had to add an entry or two to HOSTS.LIST, since
the one generated by the wizard did not work to get me into aips....
+ DHCP152-235 MACINT SLARTI NONE Put description here
+ LOCALHOST MACINT DEHARRIS NONE
+ SLARTI MACINT DEHARRIS NONE
with that host list in place, I got into aips, but it exited with a message about
no data areas.... so i changed /soft/aips/DATA/SLARTI_1 TO ...../LOCALHOST_1
{and also in /soft/aips/DA00/DADEVS.LIST....but I note the absence of the file
/soft/aips/DADEVS.SH...or is it DADEVS.PL ... ??}. I then got 'further into aips', but it still exited.
Here is what i saw
[LOCALHOST:/soft/aips/DA00] deharris% aip
You have a choice of 5 printers. These are:
