Using any ftp program or shell you can transfer the clients.zip folder to your OpenX install path and unzip it there or unzip clients.zip on your local machine and upload. if your OpenX install is similar to mydomain.com/openx/ then the clients folder will be located at mydomain.com/openx/clients/. While there you may want to check the file and folder permissions and set folders 775 and files 644, or similar depending on your servers configuration.
Now log into your OpenX installation and switch to the administrator account, now switch to the plugins page.
Click the browse button and browse to the “RevMax-Package” folder on your local machine and find the file named RevMax.zip click on it then click install. RevMax 4 plugin will then be installed on your server and you will now see a new tab, while logged in as admin, named RevMax.
