Remote Access Client Software Distribution and Licensing

Remote access services allows the network supervisor to distribute the remote access client software to any number of remote users.

The remote access dialer software is installed automatically when you install the Novell Client.

The software for MAC2NCS (RAMAC.EXE) is available on the Novell Client CD-ROM and is located in the PRODUCTS\MAC2NCS directory. RAMAC.EXE is a DOS formatted, compressed version of the Remote Access Mac Client folder. This folder contains the installer for Mac2NCS and the Set Remote Access Password utility. Instructions for making these files available to users are included in the RAMAC.TXT file included in the same directory.

To improve the performance of Point-to-Point Protocol (PPP) connections, NetWare files---LOGIN.EXE, LOGOUT.EXE, ATTACH.EXE, MAP.EXE, CX.EXE, NLIST.EXE, and SLIST.EXE---should be distributed to the remote PCs.

Any other program that is invoked in the user login script should also be distributed to the remote PCs.

PPP-based remote node support is provided with the remote access software. Apple Remote Access is available from Apple Computer, Inc.
