Installing from CD-ROM

If you are installing the client software only on a small number of workstations, or if the workstations are not yet connected to a network, you can install the Novell® ClientTM for DOS and Windows* 3.1x software from the CD-ROM using either the Windows installation utility or the DOS installation utility. See Installing from CD-ROM in Windows or Installing from CD-ROM in DOS

HINT:  If you are installing the software on several workstations that have network connections, using one of the network installation options is generally better. See Setting Up for an explanation of the three types of network installation methods.


Installing from CD-ROM in Windows

  1. Insert the Z.E.N.worksTM CD-ROM.

  2. Do one of the following:

    • In Program Manager, click File > Run, and then enter the path for the Novell Windows setup program (winsetup.exe).
    • Switch to the CD-ROM drive and then double-click winsetup.exe in the appropriate directory in File Manager.

    Winsetup.exe allows you to install additional software. It accesses the Novell Client for DOS and Windows 3.1x install program (setup.exe).

  3. Click the language version you want to install.

  4. Click Windows 3.x > Install Novell Client > Yes.

  5. Follow the on-screen instructions to complete the setup.

  6. (Conditional) Based on the optional components you have chosen, you might have to set up a Location Profile. If so, follow the on-screen instructions to complete this task.

  7. When Setup is complete, click Finish to restart the computer.

  8. (Conditional) If the Location Selection dialog box is displayed when the workstation restarts, select a location.

    For more information on selecting locations, refer to the Novell Client online help.

  9. Start Windows and log in.


Installing from CD-ROM in DOS

  1. Insert the Z.E.N.works CD-ROM.

  2. From a DOS prompt, switch to the drive where the Z.E.N.works CD-ROM is located.

  3. Change to the Products\Doswin32 directory, and then enter install.

  4. Press Enter to accept the License Agreement.

  5. Select the options you want to install on the workstation.

  6. Press F10 to continue.

    NOTE:  To return to the previous screen or to cancel the installation, press Esc at any time before Install begins copying files.

  7. Configure the options you are installing.

    Depending on the options you have chosen, various configuration screens appear. Use the arrow keys to move to a new field and press Enter to edit the field.

  8. Press F10 to save your changes and continue.

  9. Select 16-bit or 32-bit LAN driver type.

  10. Review the Installation Configuration Summary and make necessary changes by using the arrow keys to move to a new field and pressing Enter to edit the field.

  11. Press F10 to continue.

    Install copies the appropriate files to your workstation and sets up the workstation to run the Novell Client software.

  12. Exit Install by pressing Enter to return to DOS or by pressing Ctrl+Alt+Del to reboot the workstation.

    The Novell Client software does not load until the workstation restarts.
