Important Notes About the Products
----------------------------------
Internet Junction:
Installing Internet Junction requires the Internet Junction CD, an
Applications CD, and an Overlay CD. The Applications CD and Overlay CD
must be from the same release. In addition because of dependency issues
you must first install sgsearch.sw.sgsearch on the Applications CD and the
Overlays CD before installing Internet Junction. Failure to do so will
result in a confusing inst incompatability error.
CosmoPlayer:
If you want to use CosmoPlayer 1.1 to view VRML worlds, do not use Netscape
4.5 or 4.7. Netscape 4.07 works with CosmoPlayer 1.1; both Netscape 4.07 and
CosmoPlayer 1.1 are shipped on the IRIX Applications 6.5, February 1999 CD.
Netscape 4.5 or later requires CosmoPlayer 2.1, which was released with
IRIX 6.5.4, 6.5.5, and 6.5.6.
Netscape Communicator Client:
Netscape Communicator Client 4.7 is part of the default distribution
on this CD. Customers who only use the browser functionality (and
not the email, newsgroups, etc.) may prefer to install the Netscape
Navigator Client (netscape_lite) 4.7. From Software Manager, open
/CDROM/dist/extras to install this product.
Netscape's FastTrack Personal Server:
Netscape's FastTrack Personal Server on this CD will upgrade and replace
the original OutBox Webserver or previous versions of Netscape FastTrack
server. Netscape Admin server is included in the Netscape FastTrack 3.03
product. You will not need to select the Netscape Admin server for
installation. Netscape FastTrack will work with OutBox and needs no special
configuration.
Release Notes
-------------
