E.3 Installing Perl on NetWare

To install NetWare Perl on a NetWare server:

  1. Map the SYS volume of a NetWare server to I<i:>, since the makefile by default sets the drive letter to I<i:>.

  2. Enter I<nmake nwinstall> from the NetWare folder on the Windows NT command prompt. This will copy the binaries and module files to the NetWare server under I<sys:\perl> folder, and the Perl interpreter, I<perl.nlm>, to I<sys:\perl\system> folder.

  3. Move the Perl interpreter to sys:\system folder.

  4. Enter nmake install, to install the binaries on the local machine, under c:\perl folder.
