Beame & Whiteside Software BW-Connect(TM) NFS Client/Server v3.6 for Windows NT Please read this file completely as it contains important installation instructions! Installation Notes: ------------------- These release notes apply to the x86, DEC Alpha, MIPS, and PowerPC versions of the BW-Connect NFS v3.6 for Windows NT code. This release will work on Windows NT v3.1 v3.5, and v3.51, and automatically installs the correct driver for the specific version. The BW-Connect NFS for Windows NT release is comprised of two or more floppies or zipped images of floppy install files. The product is designed to be installed from a high density 3.5" floppy. Most of the files on this release have been compressed with the Windows NT compress utility. There is no need to expand any of them as they are automatically expanded by the installation process. However, you may want to expand the following three files manually from the floppy to your hard drive as you may find them useful during installation of the product. Execute the commands below: cd expand a:nfsinstl.hlp nfsinstl.hlp expand a:install.wri install.wri expand a:bwnfs36.wri bwnfs36.wri This will allow you to review help file topics or the installation instructions prior to installing the release code. Complete release notes are in the file bwnfs36.wri. Installation Help File ----------------------- There is an installation help file, NFSINSTL.HLP, on Disk1 of the release which you may expand and view prior to installation. Expand the Help file to your hard drive, create a new item in one of your Windows Destop groups pointing the Command Line field to the path and filename of nfsinstl.hlp. Double clicking on the Help ? will launch the Help file. Release on floppies -------------------- If you received a set of diskettes, refer to the hardcopy installation manual for instructions on how to install this software. Release received electronically -------------------------------- If you downloaded this software from our anonymous ftp site or some other electronic source, an activation key is required in order for the software to function. Please call 919-831-8989 and ask for department 637 in order to obtain an activation key good for 30 days. Refer to the electronic version of the installation manual, INSTALL.WRI. This is a compressed file, and must be expanded as described above before it can be viewed with the Windows Write (WRITE.EXE)application. If you want to install the software from your hard drive without creating installation floppies, create a directory and unzip the release file into it using pkunzip (without the -d switch), and use the directory into which you unzipped the software as the source directory for the installation. If you want to create installation floppies, create a directory and unzip the release file into it using pkunzip with the -d swtich. This will preserve the directory structure of the release floppies, and you can then copy the release images for disk1, disk2, ... from your hard drive to each respective floppy. NFS Server ---------- This version of BWNFS for Windows NT includes both NFS Client and NFS Server modules, although they are priced separately. The NFS Server is installed as a Windows NT Service and includes a Control Panel application for adding UNIX UID/GID to Windows NT Username/Groupname mappings and for viewing NFS Server statistics In order to mount Windows NT files exported with the NFS Server from an NFS client, you must first create an EXPORTS file, and map UNIX UID/GID values to Windows NT Usernames and Groupnames. Search in the NFS Server Help file for the topics "EXPORTS file" and "UID" for instructions on how to complete these steps. The implementation of the network lock manager in the NFS Server for Windows NT does not currently support monitored locks. Upgrading Windows NT 3.1 to 3.5 -------------------------------- Please read the help file topic about Windows NT versions. Search for Topic "3.1 version of Windows NT". Users with previous software installed: --------------------------------------- If you have a previously installed copy of BW-Connect NFS for Windows NT installed, and you the diskette you received is marked UPDATE ONLY you should choose the UPDATE button from the Control Panel Network application. Do not REMOVE your existing copy of BWNFS instead of UPDATEing as your existing serial number is required during the UPDATE process. If you have a previously installed copy of BW-Connect NFS for Windows NT installed, and you have either an electronic release of the code or a specific serial number on your diskette (e.g. 15-xxxxxx) then you should REMOVE the existing software first, reboot your machine, and then ADD SOFTWARE. Ensure that you specify in the Add Network Software Dialog box, and do not select the Beame & Whiteside NFS selection from the Network Software list.
