WpSrvrEx README
---------------
WpSrvrEx is a WPS-Enhancement. Once installed, every NOVELL server
object will show two additional entries in it's popup menu:
1). Remote Console
2). Configure RConsole
Choosing the first menu item will open a remote console session to
the selected server. This is done by starting the program specified
in menu item 2), passing the server name as a parameter.
By default this is Novell's RCONSOLE for DOS, because the OS/2 version
of this program does not accept command line parameters.
System Requirements
-------------------
WpSrvrEx needs OS/2 Warp 3 oder higher.
Installation
------------
1.) Copy the file WPSRVREX.DLL to a directory listed in your LIBPATH
e.g.: [BOOTDRIVE]:\OS2\DLL
2.) Run RPLSRVR /I
3.) Reboot
Uninstall
---------
1.) Run RPLSRVR /U
2.) Reboot
The file RCONSOLE.COM
---------------------
Since Novell's RCONSOLE.EXE belongs to a kind of programs that eat
up a lot of CPU time without doing useful work, we provide a solution
for this: The IdleStarter.
RCONSOLE.COM must be copied to the same directory where RCONSOLE.EXE is
located. When RCONSOLE is entered on an command prompt, the system will
initially load RCONSOLE.COM. RCONSOLE.COM installs a routine, that is
able to detect wasted CPU cycles. After doing this it will then load
RCONSOLE.EXE. The result is a reducement of overall system load.
Note, that this mechanism works with any other DOS program of this kind.
That means, if for example RCONSOLE.COM is renamed to BP.COM and copied to
Borland Pascal's BIN directory, it will then work for Borland Pascal's IDE.
HINT:
To use this feature in WPSRVREX, [DRIVE]:[\PATH]\RCONSOLE.COM must be
entered when configuring RConsole.
