Welcome to NetDoor for Windows !
ÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄ
This file contains helpful hints found in our testing
as well as updated information that did not make our
printed publications. It is divided into the following
categories:
o General Information
o Documentation
o Trademarks and Service Marks
GENERAL INFORMATION
ÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄ
The NetDoor installation creates a group icon labelled
'NetDoor' on your desktop. Here's a brief summary of
what you will find in your NetDoor group:
o README
This is the file you are reading now. It
was opened automatically when you started
NetDoor for the first time.
o Open NetDoor
"Open NetDoor" (OPENDOOR) connects you to the
NetDoor environment. It runs automatically
when you restart your system unless you
removed the OPENDOOR icon from the StartUp group.
In this case, you can start Open NetDoor
by double-clicking on its icon in the NetDoor
group.
o NetDoor Catalog
The "NetDoor Catalog" (CATALOG) shows all the
available applications stored on servers.
Using NetDoor you can easily use these applications
without installing them on your workstation.
Using the "NetDoor Catalog" you can:
- Search for an application in the Catalog.
- Browse information about an application.
- Add applications from the NetDoor environment
to your workstation. When you add an application,
NetDoor creates a program icon on your desktop for
accessing the application, and configures your
workstation for using it.
- Start applications directly from the
catalog. This is possible only for those
applications that do not require special
workstation configuration.
o NetDoor Maintenance
"NetDoor Maintenance" (MAINT) is a facility
which allows the NetDoor environment to keep
your system up to date automatically.
When something is upgraded or changed in the
NetDoor environment, your administartor uses
MAINT to apply these changes, called fixes,
to your workstation.
MAINT starts automatically when Open NetDoor
starts. If you do not want MAINT to run,
set the Open NetDoor options accordingly.
o Change Password
"Change Password" allows you to change your
network password on multiple domains, or to
query the password age on any of the domains.
o NetDoor Startup
"NetDoor Startup" is a folder, not a program
object. It allows you to control which
NetDoor programs are automatically started
when you connect to NetDoor. (It works in
much the same way as the Windows StartUp group.)
If there are NetDoor applications that you
would like to have started automatically each
time you connect to NetDoor, place a shadow of
the object in this folder and NetDoor will
start the program automatically for you in the
future.
o NetDoor User's Guide for Windows
This icon refers to the Library Reader for Windows
to access the online copy of the User's Guide.
You may use CATALOG to install Library Reader
to view all of the online books provided with
NetDoor.
