Installing the DSJ Client

This section describes how to install the DSJ client software. This step may have been performed by your system administrator.

What you need

To run the DSJ client, you need:

• 6 MB of free disk space (an additional 6 MB of temporary space is required during the installation).
• A copy of the DSJ setup program.
• A TCP/IP connection.
• The hostname or IP address of your primary DSJ server (contact your DSJ Administrator if you donÆt know what this is).

You may want use a ping utility to verify that your connection to the DSJ server is working. PING.EXE is provided in both Windows 95 and Windows NT. For example, if the name of your DSJ server is jserver1.mycompany.com, then from the command prompt, type:

ping jserver1.mycompany.com

You should get a few "Reply from" messages. A "Bad IP address" or "Request timed out" indicates a basic problem with your connection to the server. You must correct this before running the DSJ client.
