  2. Execute this R command for each zip file in the client directory:
```
install.packages("oreclient_install_dir/client/client_package_name.zip', repos=NULL)
```
    Each successful package installation produces this message in the R console:
```
package 'package_name' successfully unpacked and MD5 sums checked
