Installing Network and Administrative Client Software Administrative Clients

Product Manual U7613-J-Z815-6-76

You must purchase a valid software license prior to installing Windows 95/98 o r

Windows for Workgroups on a computer. However, you can install Microsoft

Network Client for MS-DOS freely.

When creating network installation startup disks, you must choose from the n etwork

interface cards (NICs) supported by Microsoft Network Client, version 3.0 for MS- DOS.

Regardless of the client software you are installing, the startup di sk begins by starting

Microsoft Network Client so that it can connect to the server. The network card and its

settings are not automatically detected. You must select the correct NIC driver and

configure it appropriately.

For more information on using Network Client Administrator to create network install ation

startup disks, see Network Client Administrator Help.

You can create an installation disk set containing the actual installation files for the following

clients:

●Microsoft Network Client, version 3.0 for MS-DOS

●Microsoft LAN Manager, version 2.2c for MS-DOS

●Microsoft TCP/IP-32 for Windows for Workgroups, version 3.11

Using the installation disk set, you can install the software manually on each computer.

These files are included in the MSCLIENTS share. You can install this software on any

client computer freely.

For more information on using Network Client Administrator to create network install ation

disk sets, see Network Client Administrator Help.

8.3 Administrative Clients

To administer Advanced Server from a Windows NT Workstation computer, you must install

Windows NT Administrative Tools. To administer Advanced Server from a Windows 95/98

client computer, you must install Windows NT Server Tools.

Both program groups are in the Administrative Tools Package (asxtools or asxtoolsD),

separately-installable software that is included with Advanced Server. It must be installed

on the server before you can install client-based administrative software ac cording to the

instructions provided in this chapter. For information about installing the asxtools or asxtoolsD

package, see chapter “Installing Advanced Server for UNIX”.
