Installing the Multiuser Server application

The Multiuser Server is part of the default installation that automatically occurs when you install Director.

You'll find the server application in your Director 8 application folder, in a subfolder named Shockwave Multiuser Server 2.1.

To install the Multiuser Server on a computer other than the one on which you're installing Director:

1

Use your Director 8 CD to run the Installer.

2

After you accept the legal agreement, when the dialog box with installation options appears, select Custom Install from the Install pop-up menu and select Shockwave Multiuser Server.

The Director application does not need to be installed on the computer where you install the server.

3

To specify where the server application will install, click the Install Location pop-up menu, select or browse to a location, and then click Install.

Note: You can also copy the Shockwave Multiuser Server folder from one location to another.
