1. | Copy the complete \WINNT or \WIN95 directory structure to the desired location on the web server. This structure is created when you extract the Novell Client files from the ZIP file downloaded from http://download.novell.com. You can place the files on up to five web servers in order to provide faster access. |
2. | From a Windows workstation, run WRITEIP.EXE. Using the WriteIP utility, you can create a small executable called SETUPIP that downloads the Novell client install files from a web server IP address and launches the Novell client install routine. There are versions for both Windows 9x and Windows XP/2000, and for all supported Novell Client languages: Windows XP/2000 WRITEIP.EXE is located in \WINNT\i386\admin. Windows 9x WRITEIP.EXE is located in \WIN95\IBM_< lan >\ADMIN\ where <lan> is one of the languages supported by the Novell Client. |
3. | In the WriteIP utility (see Figure 4.1), provide the necessary information and click OK. Figure 4.1. The WriteIP utility is used for creating a setup application for installing the Novell Client from a web server. Specify the IP address(es) or DNS name(s) of the web server(s) that host the Novell client files, and the full path to the client files, for example, Novell Client Install Manager (NCIMan) later in this chapter. |
