This Installation page works on the assumption that you have already submitted your [Exim BuildFarm Application](http://eximbuild.mrball.net/cgi-bin/register-form.pl) and the BuildFarm administration has sent you an email with your machine alias (aka _animal_) and secret password, which you will enter in step 9 below. If you just want to run the build farm client and never submit the results, you call simply run everything with the --test option and it will still work. If you ever run it without --test, it will still work, but the server will reject the feedback because it's from an unknown _animal_.
