4.7 Installing the prerequisited packages

Install the following before the actual server software:

●SIreadmeM package

●NetBIOS

Please observe the specified installation sequence he re.

Install the SIreadmeM package first. The package contains README files in German and

English. These contain information that became available after this manual went to print.

Install the SIreadmeM with the following steps:

ÊLog on to the system console as system administrator root .

ÊCarry out the installation procedure as described in the section “Installing f rom CD-

ROM with cdinst”.

ÊThen, under AS/X select the package called SIreadmeM. The system now copies the

German files from the volume to /opt/readme/asx.D and the English files to

/opt/readme/asx.GB.

Please observe the information in these files for the next steps.

The README files are always located under this path. The manual page files are

numbered consecutively, e.g. the first file for Advanced Server for UNIX V4.0 is stored in

the path /opt/readme/asx.D/man400. Since the package is a general UNIX package which is

used by different products, the package cannot be removed again.

To be able to use the WINS Service functionality NetBIOS Version 4.0A00 or later

has to be installed. When installing the AS/X package asxserver a warning will

appear if the correct version is not present.

To be able to be use the DNS-WINS integration functionality that is provided with

Reliant UNIX V5.45, NetBIOS Version 4.0B or later has to be installed.

The Advanced Server for UNIX package nbrfc with NetBIOS must be installed first. As, in

certain cases, Advanced Server for UNIX establishes contact with other servers when

installing the server software, NetBIOS must be available in advance.
