See also the INETINFO.WRI file for more information on and the detailed specifications of the non-shareware product INET TCP/IP.) 1. Overview: What is INET UTS60? INET UTS60 is a Sperry/Unisys UTS60 terminal emulator for Windows providing access to Sperry/Unisys 1100/2200 mainframes using TCP/IP. It runs on any WinSock 1.1 compliant TCP/IP stack. It has been developed by GP van Niekerk Ondernemings in Pretoria. INET UTS60 can also be supplied as part of the larger non-shareware INET TCP/IP package which include more emulators as well as ftp and print services. (A 32 bit UTS60 emulator is available since 1997. See the INETINFO.WRI file for more info on INET TCP/IP.) INET UTS60 supports the following: - DCP and HLC protocols. - Demand and TIP environments including Mapper. - Easy key mapping with over 200 function keys. - Install program with configurable install script. - Full script language including special functions like: - File read and write. - Execute external DOS/Windows programs. - String, numeric and bit-wise operations. - Addressable cursor and screen reads. - Keyboard simulation. - Colour, font and screen size selection. - Multiple sessions can be established. - Screen printing and screen-bypass printing to printer or file. - Mouse support: copy-and-paste in emulator and to/from other Windows applications. - Full settings override control by system managers. 2. Software Requirements Microsoft Windows 3.1x or Windows 95 or Windows NT. A TCP/IP stack provided by a WinSock 1.1 compliant installation. (The 16 bit WINSOCK.DLL is required. The WSOCK32.DLL is supported by our 32 bit version of UTS60 - please contact us for details.) Examples are: INET TCP/IP, MS TCP/IP (also included in Windows 95), Trumpet, etc. A ping program for your TCP/IP installation to test connectivety to remote hosts. 3. Installing INET UTS60 Confirm that your TCP/IP stack is working by making a connection or ping to the remote host you want to communicate with, before installing UTS60. Under Windows 95 with the MS TCP/IP protocol installed under Networks, you have to run the command line ping program: Choose "Run" from the Task bar. Enter the following in the command line field: ping hostname where "hostname" is the name or IP address of the remote host that you want to test. If you have received the package as a single .EXE file, it should be our self-extracting and installing package called UTS60.EXE or UTS603xx.EXE - just run it to install and ignore the rest of this section. 3.1 Windows 3.1x Run Microsoft Windows. Insert the installation disk into the disk drive, or copy all the installation files to a new temporary directory with a name like "C:\DISK1". Choose "Run" from the "File" Menu in the Microsoft Windows Program Manager. To install from the A: drive, enter the following in the command line field: a:setup To install from the hard disk from C:\DISK1, enter the following in the command line field: c:\disk1\setup The installation program will require some 300KB of temporary space on your C: drive. Follow the prompts of the installation program. 3.2 Windows 95 Run Microsoft Windows 95. Insert the installation disk into the disk drive, or copy all the installation files to a new temporary directory with a name like "C:\DISK1". Choose "Run" from the Microsoft Windows 95 Task bar. To install from the A: drive, enter the following in the command line field: a:setup To install from the hard disk from C:\DISK1, enter the following in the command line field: c:\disk1\setup The installation program will require some 300KB of temporary space on your C: drive. Follow the prompts of the installation program. 3.3 Windows NT Depending on the version of NT you are running follow the instructions above for the type of user interface your NT has (that is the 3.1x Program Manager or the Windows 95 type interface). 3.4 Minimal installation - manually The minimum required files are IWUTS60.EXE, BWCC.DLL, WSSUPPOR.DLL and DONTWIPE.ME! which should be located in C:\WINET (or if you want to put them in a different directory, use the environment variable WINET to indicate the location). The INETUTS.INI file contains among other things the keyboard mappings - copy it to your Windows directory. The INET.HLP file should also be in the WINET directory to enable on-line help. 4. Uninstalling INET UTS60 To remove UTS60 from your system, do the following: 1. Delete the WINET program group using the Del key of File Manager option File/Delete when the closed program group is selected. 2. Delete the WINET directory with all the files in it and the temporary \INET directory. 3. Delete INETUTS.INI and INET.INI in the Windows directory. 4. Edit the AUTOEXEC.BAT to delete the SET WINET statement. Optional: 5. Uninstall the INET font (no harm if you keep it) from the Control Panel option Fonts. 5. Who is GP van Niekerk Ondernemings?
