[NFBCS] How to install and use this? - Linux

[Jim Barbour]

You don't really do anything once it's insmod'd

The way I read the documentation, you connect the USB devices you need, then insmod this module.  If someone adds or removes USB devices, your system is quickly shutdown, after wiping some sensitive data.

Does that get you going?

There really isn’t any other instructions besides that? How is it that I actually turn it on or off or use the other features that it talks about?
