Installation directory for GroupWise® 6.x Windows client software
c:\novell\groupwise
The GroupWise Windows client installation directory contains all files necessary to run the GroupWise client. The default location is c:\novell\groupwise.
- For a standard installation, the GroupWise client directory resides on the user's workstation.
- For a workstation installation, the GroupWise client directory resides on the network and is run by users on many workstations.
- For a GroupWise Remote installation, the GroupWise Remote directory contains the same files as would be installed on a workstation connected to the network. Whenever GroupWise cannot make a network connection, it checks for a GroupWise Remote mailbox to access. See Remote Mailbox Directory.
